Gimlet Labs has raised 80M USD Series A to solve the AI inference bottleneck. The startup created a multi-silicon inference cloud that distributes AI workloads across diverse hardware including CPUs, GPUs, and high-memory systems. Current AI deployments use only 15-30% of available hardware, wasting billions in idle resources. The company says its orchestration software can speed up AI inference by 3x to 10x for the same cost. The round was led by Menlo Ventures. https://techcrunch.com/2026/03/23/startup-gimlet-labs-is-solving-the-ai-inference-bottleneck-in-a-surprisingly-elegant-way/ #Tech #Startup #News #AI #GimletLabs
