What is an AI Native Cloud?
Apr 7, 2026

Summary
This post defines the concept of an 'AI Native Cloud' and outlines its key characteristics: a full AI stack from hardware to software, a fast path from research to production, reliability at massive scale, a builder-centric approach, and a partnership model that moves at AI-native pace. It positions Together AI as building this AI Native Cloud, emphasizing its vertical integration and continuous evolution with research innovations. While it references existing infrastructure like GPU clusters, its primary contribution is conceptualizing and defining the overarching cloud strategy for AI-native companies.
