Every CIO will have to answer for every token | Factory's Matan Grinberg
The factory router introduces a dynamic model selection strategy that optimizes enterprise AI efficiency by routing distinct tasks to specialized, cost-effective models rather than relying on a single frontier solution. This framework enables CIOs to address the critical need for granular token allocation, assigning specific capabilities such as lightweight generation for "vibe coding" or custom fine-tuned models for legacy COBOL maintenance. By matching model performance to precise organizational workflows, the approach allows for complex multi-model validation pipelines while avoiding the inefficiency of blanket usage caps.

90% of AI tokens will be asynchronous | Matan Grinberg, Factory
The event outlines a critical shift in AI consumption from fragile, prompt-dependent synchronous models to robust asynchronous workflows where autonomous agents initiate tasks without human triggers. Industry forecasts predict that within 12 to 24 months, 90% of tokens will be generated by these autonomous systems, marking the transition from current "co-pilot" tools to fully "agent-native" operations. This evolution promises to decouple revenue growth from active human intervention by enabling systems to independently identify customer signals and execute first-pass solutions.

Factory's Matan Grinberg: The Coming ‘Dark Factory’ Where Software Builds Itself
Matan Grinberg, Sonya Huang, Pat Grady
Factory CEO Matan Cohen refunded nearly $2 million in early revenue to pivot the company from premature autonomous agents to a model-agnostic architecture that prioritizes customer obsession over vendor lock-in. By launching the Droid CLI and implementing a "Model Router" that dynamically allocates tasks between open-weight and frontier models, the firm has shifted its business model toward outcome-based pricing that replaces token consumption with result-oriented billing. This strategy positions Factory to navigate an impending market correction while transitioning enterprises from synchronous tool usage to asynchronous "dark factories" that autonomously resolve complex issues.
AMD, Starcloud, Coatue..10 Hot Takes From The Biggest Names in AI
Max Cook, Matan Grinberg, Pim de Witte, Philip Johnston, Mark Papermaster, Rodrigo Liang, Ramin Hasani, Robin Rombach, Chris Madden, Henri Delahaye, Molly, Philippe, Thomas
At the RAISE Summit, industry leaders like Max Cook and Matan outlined a decisive shift toward agentic AI ecosystems that replace traditional interfaces with natural language and naturalize the routing between frontier and open-source models based on latency and cost. Concurrently, hardware giants such as SambaNova and StarCloud announced billion-dollar investments and space-based compute strategies to overcome power constraints and enable efficient inference on edge devices. This convergence of sovereign AI initiatives, supply chain scaling, and automated software engineering marks a global transition where enterprises treat AI as a deployed product rather than a research tool.

Factory’s Matan Grinberg and Eno Reyes Unleash the Droids on Software Development | Training Data
Matan Grinberg, Eno Reyes, Sonya Huang, Pat Grady
Factory deploys autonomous software engineering "droids" that leverage existing foundation models to automate unenjoyable enterprise tasks like code review and testing, delivering a 22% increase in engineering cycle speed. The company recently achieved a 19% pass rate on the SWE-Bench benchmark by prioritizing task-specific cognitive architectures over training new models, effectively surpassing previous state-of-the-art performance. Founders Matan Grimberg and Eno Reis position the platform to shift engineering roles toward orchestration, focusing on measurable organizational metrics rather than individual developer replacement.
