Ashiba Contact

Price what you can prove.

Ashiba, or 足場, is Japanese for scaffolding. We are a scaffolding company. But you won't catch us out in the hot sun throwing up sidewalk sheds. At least, not yet. We build qualification and verification scaffolding for compute and data markets. 

As inference evaluation becomes a proper science thanks to firms like Ashiba, the markets will naturally shape around the hardware lottery of what can be efficiently observed, audited, probed, and verified.

In the compute space, that looks like better standards and benchmarks,  as well as tools for figuring out your requirements and figuring out how the markets can serve you. And we make them serve you. We will do the work of going to neoclouds and lenders and OEMs and getting you anything from 8 B300s to MW of colo. 

In the data space, we believe that current data markets are missing out on some really tough hard-won stories of what happens when you spend years doing hard things in hard industries. If you own that kind of data, we can help you prove your data's value and qualify it for real buyers. 

If you want to help keep AI markets grounded, accessible, efficient, and tethered to provable reality, reach out. Co-conspirators of pure heart and good intentions are why we do this!
