About CoreWeave
CoreWeave provides accelerated cloud computing for training, evaluating and running AI models. Its platform combines GPU clusters, storage, networking, workload management and observability for compute-intensive applications. Founded in 2017 and headquartered in Livingston, New Jersey, the company serves AI developers and enterprises through infrastructure and associated software services.
Its physical-AI offering supports robotics, autonomous vehicles and engineering teams working with simulation, sensor and test data. Customers can use the cloud infrastructure directly or work with field engineers on model development, anomaly detection, test selection and deployment within existing engineering workflows. The field-engineering team includes capabilities acquired with Monolith. These are commercially offered computing and engineering services; the specific model, robot or operational result depends on the customer programme.
