Mistral AI buys Koyeb in first acquisition to back its cloud ambitions

Mistral AI, a French company developing large language models (LLMs, AI systems trained on huge amounts of text data), has acquired Koyeb, a startup that helps developers deploy AI applications without managing server infrastructure (a method called serverless computing). This acquisition allows Mistral to expand beyond just building AI models into offering complete cloud infrastructure services, including helping customers run AI models on their own hardware and optimize performance.
