the world's smallest data center

in the heart of san francisco, you can find the world's smallest data center.

as machine learning models grow, data centers expand to keep up —
but bigger isn’t always better.

our in-house localized data center reduces latency, enabling real-time processing and direct control. we're proving that the right setup even at a small scale can achieve powerful AI performance without a massive footprint.

about lil data center

the world's smallest data center was started to power Roboflow's testing and benchmarking infrastructure.

while small, our data center runs over 1,000 test jobs per week for open source projects.
