TrueFoundry Secures $19 Million Series A Funding to Revolutionize AI Deployment

TrueFoundry, a pioneering AI deployment and scaling platform, has successfully raised $19 million in Series A funding. Led by Intel Capital, the round saw participation from Eniac Ventures, Peak XV’s Surge (formerly Sequoia Capital India & SEA), Jump Capital, and angel investors including Gokul Rajaram, Mohit Aron, and executives from Fortune 1000 companies. With this investment, Avi Bharadwaj, Investment Director at Intel Capital, will join TrueFoundry’s board of directors.

The exponential rise of generative AI has brought new challenges for enterprises looking to deploy machine learning models at scale. Governance, data privacy, and infrastructure costs have become critical roadblocks, often delaying AI implementation. TrueFoundry’s platform addresses these challenges, enabling companies to deploy, manage, and scale AI applications seamlessly, efficiently, and securely.

TrueFoundry was founded by Abhishek Choudhary, Anuraag Gupta, and Nikunj Bajaj, a team of industry veterans from Meta and IIT Kharagpur. Their extensive experience in deep learning models and large-scale infrastructure management led to the development of a state-of-the-art platform as a service (PaaS), built to eliminate AI deployment bottlenecks and streamline machine learning workflows.

“Enterprises using TrueFoundry have built and launched their internal AI platforms in as little as two months, achieving ROI within four months–a stark contrast to the industry average of 14 months,” said Nikunj Bajaj, CEO & Co-founder of TrueFoundry. “Our platform integrates seamlessly across clouds, models, and frameworks, ensuring no vendor lock-in while future-proofing deployments for evolving AI patterns like RAGs and Agents.”

TrueFoundry offers a unified Platform as a Service (PaaS) that empowers enterprise AI/ML teams to build, deploy, and manage large language model (LLM) applications across cloud and on-prem infrastructure. Designed with a developer-first interface, the platform simplifies AI deployment, allowing full-stack data scientists to independently create, test, and scale applications. Key features include model cataloging, fine-tuning, API deployment, and advanced governance tools that bridge the gap between DevOps and MLOps.

A Year of Growth and Industry Adoption

TrueFoundry’s funding announcement follows a year of remarkable milestones:

• 4X year-over-year growth in customer base
• 1,000+ AI/ML clusters deployed across enterprise clients
• Partnerships with Siemens Healthineers, ResMed, Automation Anywhere, Games24x7, and NVIDIA

The company has delivered 10X faster business value for customers while significantly reducing infrastructure costs. For instance, NVIDIA leveraged TrueFoundry to optimize GPU usage for LLM workloads, cutting costs and improving efficiency through automated resource allocation and job scheduling.

“TrueFoundry is uniquely positioned to address the growing complexities of AI deployment. Their platform simplifies the process for AI teams, enabling them to build, deploy, and scale applications with speed and efficiency,” said Avi Bharadwaj, Investment Director at Intel Capital. “With a focus on cost-efficiency, governance, and security, TrueFoundry is solving critical challenges for businesses, and we believe they are poised to lead in the rapidly expanding AI infrastructure market.”

AI Managing AI – The Future of Scalable AI Infrastructure

With a total of $21 million in funding, TrueFoundry is accelerating its mission to eliminate infrastructure bottlenecks for enterprises deploying AI at scale. The investment will be used to expand its team and strengthen go-to-market strategies to drive broader adoption.

“At TrueFoundry, we’re building a future where AI manages AI—removing the bottlenecks of human intervention and unlocking unparalleled speed and scale,” said Abhishek Choudhary, CTO & Co-founder of TrueFoundry. “Our platform streamlines infrastructure with auto-scaling, intelligent maintenance, and proactive issue detection, ensuring smooth AI operations while maintaining top-tier security and compliance.”

Delivering Speed, Cost-Efficiency, and Security

TrueFoundry’s platform has redefined AI deployment with features that prioritize speed, performance, and cost-efficiency:

• 5-15X Faster Iteration Cycles – Optimized Docker builds, seamless VSCode integration, and rapid resource switching.
• Enterprise-Grade Performance – Dynamic batching for ML models, 3-5X faster cold starts, and autoscaling with image streaming and model caching.
• 30-80% Cost Savings – Smart resource orchestration between spot and on-demand instances, inference optimizations, and granular cost tracking.
• Security and Compliance – SOC 2, HIPAA, and GDPR-certified platform with role-based access control, audit trails, and SSO integration.

Looking ahead, TrueFoundry is set to introduce its AI Agent, a self-sustaining system that anticipates and adapts to AI workflows. By automating resource management, workflow optimization, and proactive issue resolution, enterprises will be able to scale AI faster and with greater efficiency than ever before.
