Avalanche Computing Taiwan Inc.

Avalanche Computing Taiwan Inc. was funded by Nvidia USA alumni in Santa Clara, CA, USA, in 2018. The core team was established in Taipei, Taiwan at the end of 2018. After a year of collaboration with many enterprises, Avalanche Computing Taiwan Inc. was registered in February 2020. In the first month, we won the Airbus global top-10 innovation startup award in March, joined the NVIDIA global inception program, and became a part of NTUTEC. The time flies, we won several awards in global huge exhibitions at Viva Tech 2023, LTW 2022, QITC 2021, et., al.

What we do:
The barrier to entry in AI is lower than ever before, thanks to open-source software, including frameworks like TensorFlow, Keras, PyTorch, and more. However, developing specific AI applications still poses challenges for traditional companies and SMEs, as they must build data pipelines, computing environments, and AI models. But, only a few teams can help speed up the AI computing (NVIDIA team and we can do well).

To overcome these challenges (few talents, long-time waiting for computing, and a long-development cycle), we provide hyper-scale computing techniques for deep learning. Our hyper-scale computing framework is a deep-tech solution for computing technology. With our hyper-scale technology, clients can focus on innovation while we handle the rest. We offer hyper-scale architecture, multi-GPUs, distributed model training, and hyper-scale inference on 10,000+ edge devices. Clients can simply upload their AI models into our SaaS AI development tool within minutes. We call it hAIsten AI.

We provide performance-optimized AI development and deployment tool (hAIsten AI) to data scientists in a small AI team. It is a low-code tool to speed up your AI development with clicks-through. Our core technique, Hyper-scale computing tech, leverages the distributed and multip-GPUs techniques for saving time and money for your AI development (time-to-market).

The product of Avalanche Computing is called hAIsten AI in the US. The detailed functions are as follows:

Phase 1 - hAIsten AI

- Hyper-scale training computing engine ( >1 GPU on each machine)

- Hyper-scale inference engine on the cloud (AWS, Azure, and GCP)

Phase 2 - Edge Hub

- Edge computing platform (CES 2023 launched)

- Deploy your AI to all Edge devices in seconds (from 1 edge device to 100000+ edge devices)

- No code for AI conversion and optimization

Other tools (it may be from partners)

- Smart labelling (AI-empowered data annotation tool)

Vision 

is to be the best advanced and hyper-scale computing technology company for intelligence application providers and traditional industries, and in collaboration with our clients, to build a strong competitive power in the intelligence application industry.
To achieve our vision, we must have the following advantages:
1) be a computing technology leader, competitive with pure hardware or software solutions
2) be the top-tier computing technology, data analysis, solution architector, and AI experts
