Multiverse Computing raises $215 million
Multiverse Computing has successfully closed a €189 million ($215 million) Series B funding round to accelerate the adoption of its quantum-inspired AI technology, CompactifAI. This innovative tool significantly reduces the size of large language models (LLMs) by up to 95% while maintaining their original performance. The investment aims to revolutionize the $106 billion AI inference market by enabling faster processing and lower costs for deploying LLMs on a wide range of devices.
Points clés
- Multiverse Computing raised €189 million ($215 million) in a Series B funding round.
- The funding will be used to scale CompactifAI, a quantum-inspired AI model compression tool.
- CompactifAI can reduce the size of LLMs by up to 95% without performance loss.
- The technology enables 4x–12x faster processing.
- It also leads to a 50%–80% reduction in inference costs.
- CompactifAI allows advanced AI models to run on devices from phones to Raspberry Pi.

- Other investors include HP Tech Ventures, SETT, Forgepoint Capital International, CDP Venture Capital, Santander Climate VC, Quantonation, Toshiba, and Capital Riesgo de Euskadi – Grupo SPRI.
- The investment targets the $106 billion AI inference market.
- CompactifAI was developed using Tensor Networks, a quantum-inspired approach.
- Compressed versions of Llama, DeepSeek, and Mistral models are currently available.
À retenir
So, Multiverse Computing got a cool quarter of a billion dollars to make those chatty AI models less of a digital sumo wrestler and more of a nimble gymnast. Apparently, their “quantum-inspired” magic shrinks these things by 95% while keeping their brains intact. Now, instead of needing a supercomputer the size of a small country to run an LLM, you might just need… well, something slightly less massive. It’s almost like they found a way to put a whole library into a paperback book. Who knew quantum physics could be so practical, right?
