Value proposition

Elastic, managed fleets of Apple hardware (bare-metal Macs and macOS VMs) so AI labs and developers can train, test and run computer-use agents without buying or managing physical Macs.

Products and solutions

Managed compute (bare-metal Macs, macOS VMs on Apple-native virtualization, currently in preview), customer-managed compute at Mount Thor sites, portal, mthr CLI, API and Kubernetes interface, planned inference lab for open-source models on Apple silicon.

Unique value

Apple's OS and silicon made available as elastic cloud compute at datacenter scale, with demand that scales with the number of agents rather than the number of people.

Target customer

AI research labs, agent infrastructure providers, agentic product companies, AI-native software development platforms and enterprises running inference.

Industries served

AI research and RL environments, AI agent infrastructure, software development and testing for Apple platforms, enterprise AI inference

Technology advantage

Rack-scale Apple hardware operations; first data center deployed in under six months; team with infrastructure experience at Cerebras, CoreWeave, Fluidstack, Nebius, OpenAI and xAI; Tier 1 colocation partners across US metros.

How they differentiate

Focused on AI agents and AI labs rather than developer CI alone. Offers elastic scale from one to thousands of Macs through one API, plus customer-managed fleets and a planned inference lab for Apple silicon.

Main competitors

MacStadium, AWS EC2 Mac

Key partnerships

Tier 1 colocation providers in major US metros (unnamed), non-dilutive hardware financing (provider undisclosed).

Major milestones

2026: founded. Nov 12, 2026: announced $45M across Seed and Series A, plus undisclosed non-dilutive hardware financing. Peter Voell confirmed as Founder and CEO in the Nov 12, 2026 Business Wire release and the company blog.

Growth metrics

First data center deployed in under six months; describes itself as operating one of the largest elastic fleets of Apple silicon.

Market positioning

Specialized neocloud for Apple silicon and macOS, aimed at agentic AI workloads and inference.

Geographic focus

United States (Europe and Asia expansion planned)
