Beam (beam.cloud) is a serverless GPU and Python cloud-runtime platform. You write ordinary Python, decorate it, and Beam deploys it as a web endpoint, a task queue, a scheduled job, or a secure sandbox running on on-demand CPU and GPU containers with per-second billing, rapid cold starts, and automatic scaling.
