Gimlet Labs is a San Francisco applied research company building the first multi-silicon inference cloud - software that runs AI workloads simultaneously across CPUs, GPUs, and specialized accelerators. Founded by ex-Google and ex-NVIDIA engineers behind the Pixie observability project, Gimlet ships Gimlet Cloud (serverless agent inference) and kforge (autonomous kernel generation from PyTorch). The company exited stealth in October 2025 with eight-figure revenue and raised an $80M Series A led by Menlo Ventures in March 2026.
Kinetic is a Southern California startup turning the messy, hours-long job of recalibrating modern vehicle sensors into a 15-minute, robot-run procedure. Through its network of Kinetic Hubs and its in-house AI and robotic arms, it services EVs, ADAS-equipped cars, and eventually robotaxis on behalf of collision shops, dealerships, fleets, and insurers.
