About HyperAccel
HyperAccel designs chips and servers for running large language models. Its LPU, short for LLM processing unit, is a programmable processor with a dataflow built around memory bandwidth and data reuse, since text generation is limited by how fast weights can be read. Products include the Bertha accelerators and the Forte 55X card, which pairs its LPU technology with an AMD Alveo U55C board. The company is headquartered in Seoul, South Korea.
HyperAccel was founded in 2023 and is based in Seoul, South Korea. It is listed under AI Accelerators. Reported funding is ₩55B (~$37.7M) Series A (Dec 2024).
