About Modal

51-200 employees

Customers rely on Modal for instant GPU access, sub-second container starts, and native storage, so it's simple to serve low-latency inference, fine-tune models, and access production-ready sandboxes at scale. Every era of computing came with new workloads that previous infrastructure couldn't serve: mainframes, databases, the cloud. Each time, the company that rebuilt the layer underneath defined the decade. AI is no different, except it touches everything instead of one slice. The window to build is open right now.
