In their words
“the financial complexities of building and operating new clouds and selling to customers.”
“There is a gap between what AI can do and what most companies actually experience. Until now, companies have lacked a cost-efficient way to train, tune, and own custom AI models. River closes this gap, helping any company build models on their own data, tailored to how they actually work.”
“American leadership in AI urgently requires leadership in open weight models, while maintaining a lead in closed frontier models. Igor and the River AI team have the experience to make this happen, and we view their agenda as a priority for American resilience.”
