Idea phase

Lightning AI is perfect for startups in the idea phase. In this phase, your main goal is to launch a product and win users' hearts quickly. All-in-one Studios allow you to focus on your main goal instead of spending eight+ months building AI infrastructure.

First time set up

It takes a few minutes to get set up for a super early startup.

Create a teamspace

For each project you are working on, create a teamspace.

The teamspace isolates the data access scope to a group of people and allows you to set a budget.

Add collaborators

Invite all colleagues to the teamspace as members. Each member automatically gets their own teamspace.Added members automatically get their own teamspace. There is no cost for adding members to the organization.

Pay as you go

There's no cost to get started with Lightning AI. Pay only for what you use and $0 when nothing is running. This helps to keep prototyping costs down. When you have found some success, consider upgrading to more advanced features or creating an organization as the ideas enter the early stage phase.

Skip the DIY trap

AI startups don't initially plan to build their infrastructure - yet, it happens very often. It starts with a POC with Kubernetes or AWS. Then slowly you layer in functionality. Eight months later it's a full time job.

Pretty soon your team is overwhelmed, spending 90% of their time managing your own complex web of systems. Congratulations, you just accidentally built an ML platform!

With Lightning AI, enjoy the autonomy of a custom platform without the hassle. Lightning AI hands you the keys to a smooth platform experience, allowing you to focus on what matters.
