About AI Fabrik
AI Fabrik builds an edge inference delivery network for high-performance tokens, with faster time-to-market from grid to tokens. Our mission is to build the inference infrastructure we wished every enterprise already had — close to users, close to the cloud, and extremely resilient for real-time workloads. We are builders, architects, engineers, and researchers with hands-on experience in real-world AI deployment in production, and decades of data center experience that taught us exactly what needs to change.
AI Fabrik was incubated inside Gruve and backed by Mayfield, Xora (Temasek), Acclimate Ventures, Cisco Investments — existing investors from Gruve who followed us into this new chapter. We are deploying five initial production sites, with the first one coming online in July 2026.
