OneFlow Technology

OneFlow Technology (一流科技) is the Beijing company founded in January 2017 by Yuan Jinhui, built around OneFlow, a distributed deep learning framework whose code — PyTorch-compatible API aside — was written from scratch by his team, and which ZhenFund's Z Talk describes as anticipating the era of giant models years before GPT-3 validated the bet in 2020 . Per a Unity Ventures piece by its own Xiao Wang, the firm backed OneFlow at angel stage back when large-model底层框架 was far from an industry consensus, and the framework "later became the world's first AI computing framework oriented toward large models and big data" before the company was acquired by Lightyears Away (光年之外) . Yuan has since moved on — after a stint at Meituan following the acquisition, he founded SiliconFlow, the AI infrastructure startup focused on inference .
