About Modal
What is Modal?
Modal delivers a purpose-built platform for AI and data workloads, enabling teams to deploy inference, training, and batch processing without wrestling with infrastructure. With features like sub-second container startup, instant autoscaling to thousands of GPUs or containers, and usage-based pricing, Modal abstracts away DevOps so developers can focus on building models and applications. It supports inference of large language models, image/video/audio generation, fine-tuning, sandboxes for untrusted code, job scheduling and large-scale batch workloads. The platform emphasises performance, developer experience and enterprise-grade governance including SOC2/HIPAA compliance and data-residency controls.
