AI GPU clouds companies: 14 verified, updated November 13, 2026
Presspool has verified 14 AI GPU clouds companies. 11 of them announced a round in the last six months, most recently KONST ($30 million, October 9, 2026). Latest rounds: the 12 stated exactly in dollars total $7.75 billion; 2 more in dollars have no exact figure and are left out of totals and rankings.
A subset of Presspool's AI infrastructure map: companies whose fit on that map places them in AI GPU clouds. Companies selling the layers other AI products run on: GPU clouds and neoclouds, inference and model-serving platforms, training data and web data for AI, evaluation, observability and testing for AI, vector and AI-native databases, and infrastructure for AI agents. Each company is already on the parent map, where it was taken from the company's own website and confirmed by an independent source, both linked on the entry. No company pays to be listed.
This map does not have its own weekly question set or answer sample. The questions and answer counts for these companies are on the AI infrastructure map.

What counts as AI GPU clouds
This page lists companies already on the AI infrastructure map. A company is listed here when the fit recorded on that map names AI GPU clouds before any other layer. It is not a separate check. Out of scope: companies on the AI infrastructure map whose fit names a different layer first, and anything the AI infrastructure map excludes. Companies whose product is an end-user AI application, and companies whose most recent announced round is more than 12 months old. Definitions are versioned; this is version 1. Corrections need a public source: see Contact.
Changes
- November 13, 2026: Opened as a subset of the AI infrastructure map. Members are companies already on that map whose fit names this layer first. No separate company check was made for this page.
