Baseten will be one of the defining infrastructure companies of this era. Its Inference Cloud powers today's most advanced AI apps, and as post-training becomes inseparable from inference, they're working with app builders to create closed-loop learning systems that turn production data into compounding model improvement. We're proud to have led or co-led its $40M Series B, $75M Series C, and now its $1.5B Series F. It's Spark's second largest investment ever, behind only Anthropic. The team is special and the market still underestimates the size of the opportunity. We couldn't be more excited for what's to come.

Cadence founder @caltchek is building a way to automate care for chronic diseases like heart failure, hypertension, and diabetes. They manage nearly 100,000 patients. And they're catching ~20 strokes a week before patients know they’re having one. How it works: A doctor orders Cadence. The patient gets connected devices at home, like a blood pressure cuff or scale. Cadence tracks daily vitals, reads medical records, labs, allergies, and symptoms, then uses AI agents with humans in the loop to adjust meds, triage risks, and coach patients on their care plan. If a patient’s blood pressure spikes on a Saturday night, Cadence can call within 2.5 minutes to check symptoms and decide what needs to happen next. One patient in rural North Carolina had been in and out of the hospital three times in six months. After Cadence got him stabilized and on the right meds, he played golf again for the first time in three years. @jordihays: "Total white pill."

1/ A huge congratulations to @TeamOratomic from all of us @sparkcapital. They are building the world’s first fault-tolerant quantum computer using neutral atom qubits. We have not been this close to a useful quantum computer. Please consider joining this remarkable company.

We now have a finetuning product called loops that uses similar abstractions to tinker! It makes it very easy to deploy your model after training. For example, it’s often difficult to export a model to serve because you have to quantise it to get good performance in production. As such we are very opinionated on how quantisation should be handled during training, so there’s zero mismatch between your trained model and your deployed model. There’s many other things to consider too of course, and thinking machines has built a great product, but the future is training much more tightly coupled with inference. Some of our biggest customers are using loops, dm me if you want beta access

Post-training for domain-specific tasks is commoditised. @thinkymachines provides really good Claude Code / Codex skills for anyone out there to finetune open-source models. For inference, use @baseten or @FireworksAI_HQ as per your choice.

Introducing Claude Sonnet 5, our most agentic Sonnet yet. It makes plans, uses tools like browsers and terminals, and runs autonomously at a level that just a few months ago required larger and more expensive models.

1/ Everyone in healthcare appreciates the need to shift from reactive to preventative care, especially for patients with chronic disease. However, our clinical workforce is already stretched and systems are under financial pressure. We need technology to enable this transition.

Today, Cadence is announcing our $100M Series C, led by @SparkCapital, with participation from @ThriveCapital, @generalcatalyst, @coatuemgmt, @BCapitalGroup, Corewell Health Ventures, Memorial Hermann, and Duke Health. Together with the leading health systems in the US, we are automating the treatment of chronic disease, delivering better outcomes to 100,000+ patients. Our clinical AI monitors patients daily, surfaces risk early, coordinates action, and extends clinicians so they can focus on the decisions that require them. The results: - 27% fewer hospital admissions - $1,302 annual cost reduction per patient - $2.7M in Medicare savings every week - 70% relative improvement in blood pressure control - Median alert response time of 3.5 minutes AI is improving clinical care. This round is about scaling world-class care from 100,000 patients to millions. I’m deeply grateful to our patients, partners, investors, and every member of the Cadence team. We’re building the standard for how chronic disease gets treated in America.

6/ We're thrilled to lead Cadence's $100M Series C and scale this world-class care to the rest of America's chronic care patients. AI is our best chance to finally bend the cost curve, and there's no better team to bring it to market than this one. Join them!

5/ As we've seen in investments like Abridge, when AI is built and deployed responsibly, in partnership with health systems, with a deep focus on clinical and financial outcomes, the results can dwarf what was possible in the pre-LLM era.

4/ Cadence already serves more than 100K patients + saves Medicare ~$3M per week. It's clear this should scale to Ms of patients, quickly. And, as model capabilities improve, so will the impact Cadence can have. It's one of the most compelling "Applied AI" pitches we've heard.

3/ The results speak for themselves: 27% fewer hospital admissions, $1,302 annual cost reduction per patient, 70% relative improvement in blood pressure control. They've published peer-reviewed data that speaks to the efficacy of this solution: cadence.care/evidence

2/ @caltchek and the team at Cadence are working with the most innovate health systems in America to use AI solve this problem: monitoring patients daily, surfacing risks, and taking action. With Cadence, we can keep our most vulnerable patients healthier and out of the ER.

A GPU sitting idle is expensive. Too many AI deployments focus on compute and networking, then get delayed by transformer lead times, power constraints, or cooling limitations. Building GPU infrastructure starts long before a chip is installed. Our latest blog explores the core components of GPU infrastructure and what teams should consider when designing AI-ready sites: hubs.la/Q04mg97m0
