San Francisco-based AI inference startup Baseten is in talks to raise about $2 billion at a valuation of up to $30 billion, according to market sources. The potential round would more than double the company's $13 billion valuation from June. Existing investor Sands Capital is expected to lead. Founded in 2019, Baseten provides enterprises with platforms for deploying and running multiple AI models. Rival Fireworks AI raised $1.5 billion at a $17.5 billion valuation in July, while Nvidia invested $150 million in Baseten in January as it expanded its focus on AI inference, Bloomberg reported.
