Groq is Literally Built Different

Groq was established in 2016 for one thing: inference

We built our own chip—the LPU—because GPUs weren’t designed for the job. That hardware powers GroqCloud™—a full-stack platform that cuts out the middleman – letting you scale fast, without compromise.

Unmatched Price Performance

Groq provides the lowest cost per token, even as usage grows, without sacrificing speed, quality, or control.
