Sail Research builds 'token factory' targeting 1000x cheaper intelligence via heterogeneous chips, distributed data centers, and scavenged power▾

By optimizing software for throughput (not latency), buying undervalued chips (AMD, TPU, Trainium, custom), deploying 1MW distributed data centers with 95% uptime tolerance, and pairing with intermittent renewable power, Sail Research aims to drive token cost down 3-6 orders of magnitude.
