FAQ
Who is behind SCALE?
Stratus is run by GMI Cloud, an AI infrastructure company supporting startups building and scaling production AI systems.
Where is the program held?
The program is a mix of remote sessions and in-person events. Key in-person moments (such as Demo Dinner and select socials) will be clearly marked in advance to support travel planning.
Who should apply?
Early-stage AI startups actively building products that require real infrastructure decisions — including inference, deployment, performance, and cost optimization.
What stage startups do you accept?
We typically work with teams from early product through pre-Series A, but stage matters less than technical readiness and commitment to building toward production.
What does participation require?
Founders should expect to engage weekly through reviews, masterclasses, and working sessions. Some sessions are flexible; in-person events are optional unless otherwise noted.
