Pathway
Pathway builds infrastructure for live AI - systems that think and learn in real time instead of being frozen at training. Its source-available Python framework powers high-throughput, low-latency ETL, stream processing, real-time analytics, and RAG/LLM pipelines that stay continuously in sync with sources like SharePoint, Google Drive, S3, Kafka, and PostgreSQL. The company is also developing BDH (Baby Dragon Hatchling), a post-transformer frontier model aimed at solving continual learning and long-horizon reasoning. Pathway is trusted by organizations including NATO, La Poste, and Formula 1 teams.
