Positron

Positron AI is a US-based generative-AI hardware company founded in 2023 and headquartered in Reno, Nevada, building purpose-built Transformer inference accelerators as an alternative to GPU-based inference infrastructure. Its shipping product, Atlas, is a rack inference appliance built on eight in-house Archer accelerators (256 GB HBM) and dual AMD EPYC Genoa processors, with the next-generation Asimov silicon and Titan system slated for 2027. Positron exposes its inference fleet through "Olivaw", a serving and administration layer that publishes two documented HTTP APIs: an OpenAI-compatible completions API (models, chat completions, text completions, with server-sent-event streaming) so existing OpenAI client code can be repointed at a Positron endpoint, and an administrative API for managing models, service nodes, users, and access tokens on an appliance or hosted cluster. The company raised a $230M Series B in February 2026 at a valuation above $1B from ARENA, Jump Trading, Unless, the Qatar Investment Authority, Arm, Helena, DFJ Growth, Atreides, Valor, Resilience Reserve, Flume Ventures and 1517 Fund.

Positron publishes 5 APIs on the APIs.io network, including Access Tokens API, Completion API, Models API, and 2 more. Tagged areas include Artificial Intelligence, AI Inference, inference-hardware, AI Accelerators, and Large Language Models.

Positron’s developer surface includes documentation, API reference, getting-started guide, support, changelog, authentication, and 24 more developer resources.
