About Finchetto

To unlock the full potential of AI, we must make data centres more energy efficient.

Data centres consume 2% of all global electricity – and powering sufficient compute is the single greatest challenge for AI today. At Finchetto, we're on a mission to significantly reduce data centre energy use and accelerate cluster performance with the world's first fully-optical passive network switch. Network switches are the workhorses of every data centre. And they are power hungry, accounting for 20% of a data centre's total energy use. Compared to today's state-of-the-art switches, Finchetto reduces power requirement by up to 26x while reducing latency by up 40x. Super low power. Ultra low latency. Lightspeed packet switching. Massive throughput. Finchetto makes light work of AI.
