Company Description
Proxis is the first dedicated platform for LLM distillation and serving, unlocking production ready models at 1/10th the cost. Jackson (CTO) optimized the Gemini model at Google for efficient deployment at massive scale. Liam (CEO) built zero-to-one systems as a software engineer. Fine-tuning frontier models like GPT-4 on proprietary data is expensive, and locks customers into one external closed source model provider. To solve this, enterprise AI teams can use Proxis to distill state-of-the-art Llama 405b into an efficient model tuned on their own data, which is 5x faster and 10x cheaper than closed source alternatives.
