Poolside AI

COMPANY

Frontier AI research lab building specialized foundation models (Malibu and Point) and AI software agents for the enterprise. Focused on AGI through software development using Reinforcement Learning from Code Execution Feedback (RLCEF). Strategic partner of AWS, offering fully managed models on Amazon Bedrock and EC2. Uses AWS Trainium chips for optimized price-performance inference. Its "Model Factory" framework enables automated, high-scale synthetic data training (10,000 code executions per minute). Launched "Atlas" inference codebase to support multi-hardware platforms. Projects include "Project Horizon," a 2GW AI campus in Texas. Rated as a major competitor to GitHub Copilot for enterprise-grade AI software development.
