Mount Thor raises $45M to build data centers around Apple silicon for AI
The Bay Area startup will use the funding to offer cloud infrastructure designed specifically for AI agents running on Apple chips.
Mount Thor, a Bay Area startup focused on cloud infrastructure built with Apple silicon, has raised $45 million across its Seed and Series A funding rounds.
The company's pitch to investors centered on the idea that AI agents perform well on Apple silicon, but no one is currently offering those chips for rent at data-center scale. Mount Thor aims to fill that gap by building data centers that make Apple-based computing available for AI workloads.
The funding will support the development and deployment of this infrastructure. The company has not disclosed a timeline for when its services will become available to customers.
