Groq is an AI infrastructure company that has been repositioning from an AI chipmaker toward operating an inference “neocloud” with its own data centers. Recent coverage says Groq raised $350 million at a $3.5 billion valuation and plans to expand GroqCloud capacity from about 54–57 megawatts to over 200 megawatts by 2027, offering customers increased public-cloud capacity for inference workloads. It has also been described as operating primarily with Nvidia-based systems as part of its restructuring.
