FloydHub

FloydHub, initially known as Floyd, was a Platform-as-a-Service company located in San Francisco, CA, specializing in the training and deployment of deep learning models in the cloud. Operating within the B2B sector, specifically in engineering, product, and design, FloydHub aimed to streamline the infrastructure work involved in machine learning projects, allowing users to concentrate on the core aspects of their problems. The platform enabled users to start running their first project in less than 30 seconds, making it accessible and efficient for developers and researchers. FloydHub was part of the Y Combinator W17 batch and served regions including the United States, America/Canada, and remote or partly remote locations. Despite its innovative approach, FloydHub became inactive as of August 20, 2021. The company’s blog featured articles on deep learning, artificial intelligence, and cloud GPUs, covering topics such as N-Shot Learning, Gated Recurrent Unit (GRU) with PyTorch, and comparisons between GRU and LSTM models. The blog provided valuable insights into the use of GRUs for time-series prediction and performance comparisons between GRU and LSTM models.
