Render

San Francisco, California, 94107, United States

Overview

Render operates a modern, fully managed cloud designed to let application developers deploy and scale web services, containers, and real-time AI workloads without managing underlying infrastructure. The San Francisco-based company offers services such as WebSockets, containerized workloads, infinite-runtime processes, a global CDN, DDoS protection, private networking, and auto-deploys from Git. More than 4.5 million developers use Render, with over 250,000 new users joining each month, making it one of the fastest-growing cloud platforms globally. Render has become a preferred choice for AI-native startups because its architecture supports stateful, long-running and distributed AI applications and agents. The company is now building a unified AI application runtime that will combine compute, durable execution, high-speed storage, LLM orchestration, and observability into one platform. Early-access features such as Render Workflows (for durable execution) are already available, and forthcoming launches include object storage, code-execution sandboxes, shared filesystems, and an AI gateway. Including its latest round, Render has raised $258 million to date, underpinning continued investment in product expansion and go-to-market growth.
