Our Story

Cake was founded by a team of seasoned AI infrastructure veterans and open source contributors who saw a pattern across hundreds of real-world ML and AI projects: it’s not any one tool that slows teams down, it’s the platform glue holding them all together. 

Inspired by the rise of powerful open source components and the “compound startup” model, they set out to build Cake: a fully managed, modular AI infrastructure platform that helps teams bring AI-powered products to market faster, with best-in-class open source tools, built-in security and compliance. 

Today, companies use Cake to run everything from LLM-powered apps to classic ML pipelines abstracting the infrastructure, accelerating development, and scaling with confidence.

Speed over comfort

Cake is a fast-moving and exciting environment. We are moving fast, learning a ton, and often outside of our comfort zone. It is a great place for people who like Type 2 fun.
