Cartesia

Cartesia is a London-based artificial intelligence company founded in 2023 that specializes in developing state space models (SSMs) as alternatives to transformer-based language models. The company focuses on neural architecture research, particularly on creating computationally efficient models for language processing. Cartesia's work explores state space models like Mamba, which aim to provide advantages in training efficiency and inference speed compared to traditional transformers. As a venture-backed private company in AI research and development, Cartesia works on foundational advances in how language models are built and optimized, addressing key challenges in making large models more efficient for practical deployment.
