Cerebrium, a South African AI infrastructure company, secured $8.5 million in seed funding from Gradient Ventures and others. Cerebrium's platform helps businesses develop AI chatbots, video tools, and voice assistants, streamlining the development and operation of AI-powered products. This eliminates the need for large infrastructure teams or high cloud costs. Cerebrium plans to use the funding to expand its engineering team and develop advanced tools for faster deployments and data compliance.
