Tenstorrent

Tenstorrent is a computing company that develops AI processors and systems, including their Blackhole™ chips and QuietBox workstations. They provide an open-source software stack, including TT-Forge™ (an MLIR-based compiler) and TT-Metalium™ (a low-level AI hardware SDK), to enable developers to run and optimize various AI models on their hardware. Their offerings are geared towards developers and enterprises looking for high-performance, scalable AI infrastructure.

Tenstorrent is primarily a hardware company that builds AI processors and systems. While they offer an open-source software stack (TT-Forge, TT-NN, TT-Metalium) that enables developers to run and optimize AI models, including LLMs, vision models, and NLP models, they do not directly provide a conversational AI interface or a comprehensive safety and alignment framework as a core offering. Their focus is on providing the underlying hardware and software tools for AI development and deployment, rather than a complete AI SaaS platform with direct end-user AI applications or extensive enterprise-grade security/compliance features beyond what's inherent in their hardware and open-source approach. They do support various AI models, including those for image generation and code generation, and provide API access through their SDKs. Their open-source nature and documentation also align with research and publications.
