The most interesting AI startups are owning their models, controlling their inference, and shipping fast - and most people don't know it yet.
“Built on Baseten” is a quarterly showcase where early-stage founders building on Baseten get on a stage and share what they built. Not a pitch session - focused on how they're making infrastructure decisions and what they learned.
You'll hear from founders who:
- Moved off closed models and built something faster and better
- Shipped voice, vision, or custom model features in production
- Chose to own their inference stack - and what happened next
Just demos and the stories behind them. Founder lineup to be announced soon.
Space is limited.
