Our mission
Frontier intelligence for everyone,
through breakthrough efficiency
More capable models expand what AI can do. For those capabilities to become everyday applications, they need to be fast enough for real workflows and affordable enough to use at scale. Agents are at the center of this: a single task chains dozens of model calls and tool calls, each waiting on the last.
That is why we see efficiency as the gateway to everything else. It unlocks three things:
- 01
Speed
Faster responses, so agents run more loops in the same time
- 02
Cost
More tokens from every GPU, so each token costs less
- 03
Quality and reliability
The headroom to serve full frontier models, with 100% reference accuracy and uptime you can count on
To get there, we build a system that learns how every model should run on every chip, and gets faster every time it does. Agents turn a new model, a new chip, and live traffic into a stack that is measurably faster week after week, without giving up accuracy. Every deployment feeds back into our agentic reference architecture, so the gains compound: the next model starts where the last one finished.
Frontier intelligence. On every chip. At every speed.
The team behind Inco
We are the researchers and engineers behind the modern inference stack, including AWQ, DFlash, and TensorRT-LLM. Now, our team is building the full engine to power the next generation of AI applications and agents.
Explore our researchFounders
Zhijian and Lucas share roots in MIT’s Han Lab and a focus on making AI more efficient, from academic research to production. Both remain active contributors to the field. Zhijian advances efficient deep learning as an Assistant Professor at UC San Diego, while Lucas brings experience as Founding Engineer and Chief Architect at OmniML and a leader in model optimization and inference at NVIDIA. Together, they founded Inco AI to connect advances in research with the engineering needed to bring fast agentic inference at scale to the market.
