AI models that run on an inference cloud optimized for speed
GPUs are built for training, not inference. General Compute is an inference cloud running on ASICs — purpose-built alternatives to Nvidia silicon designed specifically for inference. We deliver 5x faster responses and higher per-user throughput for latency-sensitive workloads like coding and voice agents. Our OpenAI-compatible API means you swap your base URL, keep your existing workflows, and run real-time AI on infrastructure built for the job.
Hey Product Hunt, I'm Jason, Co-founder & CTO of General Compute!
The Problem
Agents are the most exciting thing happening in AI right now but the infra they run on was designed for chatbots, not autonomous workflows. When an agent has to make 20, 50, sometimes hundreds of sequential LLM calls to complete a task, latency compounds into a ceiling on what's actually possible.
Most inference providers today hit you with one of two tradeoffs:
❌ GPU-based stacks – Great for training, but memory-bandwidth bottlenecks mean your agent runs slowly (~120 tokens/second)
❌ "Fast" inference with catches – Some providers deliver speed but lock you into small models, limited context windows, or pricing that breaks at agent-scale token volume. Speed without intelligence isn’t worth the trade off.
After years building voice agents and real-time AI products ourselves, we got tired of waiting. So we built General Compute.
How General Compute is Different 🚀
GC is an ASIC-first inference cloud built on multiple chips, including SambaNova. SN uses a 3 tier memory architecture and dataflow, which is a fancy way of saying “It’s really fast cause we don’t have the same bottlenecks”.
🔹 Agent first (OpenClaw) – Agents can sign up on their own and manage their own API keys. OpenClaw can move its inference just by pointing it at our website.
🔹 Built for agent workloads – Tuned for both coding agents and voice AI (TTFT), the things that matter when you're chaining dozens of calls. Your agent finishes in seconds, not minutes.
🔹 Speed without the tradeoffs – Frontier open models, full context windows, and pricing that actually works at production scale.
Who is this for?
If you're building AI agents, voice AI ,or even just using OpenClaw or OpenCode and want faster inference, then GC is built for you. Faster inference isn't just a nice-to-have; it unlocks use cases that weren't viable before.

Who hunted General Compute?
General Compute was hunted by Ben Lang. A “hunter” on Product Hunt is the community member who submits a product to the platform — uploading the images, the link, and tagging the makers behind it. Hunters typically write the first comment explaining why a product is worth attention, and their followers are notified the moment they post. Around 79% of featured launches on Product Hunt are self-hunted by their makers, but a well-known hunter still acts as a signal of quality to the rest of the community. See the full all-time top hunters leaderboard to discover who is shaping the Product Hunt ecosystem.
