Fal
Imagine if generative media had an infrastructure partner capable of supporting exponential growth.
fal is a generative media platform for developers. By providing the fastest inference for generative models, they're tackling the challenges of slow inference speeds and high costs that often hinder the seamless integration of these powerful models into real-world applications.

A seriously steep slope
$1M to $40M ARR in just one year. 1M+ developers. Generating billions of assets (image, video, audio) monthly and handling over 100 million inference requests daily. $49M Series B. Founders Burkay Gur and Gorkem Yurtseven unpack the details of fal's journey (so far) in Fortune.

Obsess over performance
When Burkay and Gorkem first showed First Round Partner Todd Jackson a demo in our office, his mind was blown — not just by how they turned him into George Clooney, but by how they were doing stable diffusion inference at 30 frames per second, so fast it basically became a video. (Of course, it's even faster now.) For consumers, that means no more waiting around for that AI-generated headshot or meme. For developers, that means providing lightning fast inference in a more cost effective way.
