DeepL, a leader in Language AI, has selected VAST Data to construct a robust data foundation, setting the stage for the development of next-generation AI capabilities. This partnership is projected to increase DeepL's storage capacity threefold compared to their current system, marking a significant step forward in their infrastructure capabilities. With 200,000 business teams worldwide utilizing DeepL's services, the company aims to leverage VAST's cutting-edge AI Operating System to ensure that their growing demands for performance and reliability are met efficiently.

Stefan Andresen, DeepL's Chief Scientist, emphasizes the critical role of infrastructure in supporting groundbreaking AI research. He notes that DeepL's researchers continually push the boundaries of Language AI, necessitating equally advanced backend systems to support this progression. According to Andresen, VAST Data provides exactly what DeepL requires: remarkable performance coupled with reliability, while also maximizing the usage efficiency of existing infrastructure. The integration with VAST is anticipated to support DeepL's efforts in exploring more demanding areas of AI, ensuring their infrastructure can sustain their innovative pace — a sentiment echoed by Jeff Denworth, Co-Founder of VAST Data, who stated that AI's operational reliability is as crucial as its raw performance.

DeepL's choice of VAST Data also seems to be a strategic move aligned with their future innovations, including the much-anticipated introduction of DeepL Voice in November 2024. As DeepL Press Releases reports, the company's expansion strategy entails not only enhancing their current offerings but also building the underpinnings needed for future advancements. Denworth highlights the reliability and scalability of VAST's AI OS, which he claims was specifically designed to support AI applications at scale, providing DeepL with a dependable foundation.

Incorporating VAST into their operations signals DeepL's commitment to building a resilient infrastructure that powers global businesses with language solutions. With backing from investors like Benchmark, IVP, and Index Ventures, DeepL is well-positioned to continue its trajectory as a global AI powerhouse. As the landscape of AI in language services becomes increasingly competitive, DeepL's collaboration with VAST represents a strategic move to fortify its leadership in the market.
