It's an AI company, it's kind of expected at this point - who would take an AI company seriously if they don't use AI themselves?

  Why do you say it's an AI company? It seems like their business is "Distribute your application to self-managed customers" not especially AI focused.

    Every company these days are AI companies. Even the ones you’d least expect. https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c98mrepzgj7o https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c98mrepzgj7o

      Sure, but you wouldn't just say "Oh they are a Postgres" company because they use that specific database somewhere in the stack.

    They said they help deployments for "software companies and AI companies" which I thought was an interesting distinction

      That's just different customer personas for marketing reasons, just like Vercel has "Build and deploy on the AI Cloud" as their main tag line on the landing page. It doesn't mean they are an "AI company".

      I think it's just to get the AI keyword in there.
