The Charlottesville, Virginia-based company said the programme targets select Fortune 1000 firms, tier 1 telecoms and fibre operators, and enterprise DevOps platforms.
Zerogrid uses Zero Latency's US edge-computing clusters as a single dispatched pool, matching inference jobs to capacity that meets latency, data-gravity and burst requirements.
The company says the system adapts virtual power plant principles from energy infrastructure to AI, aiming to address cloud and on-prem limits around data residency, regulatory geography and sovereign AI needs.
Can a startup's smart grid model for AI outmaneuver the massive edge networks of established tech giants?
With inference consuming 80% of AI budgets, is a power-grid model the only way to make real-time AI economically sustainable?
As new AI laws take effect, how can distributed grids guarantee data sovereignty when AI agents make their own routing decisions?
