# Chinese AI infrastructure provider Infinigence AI raises RMB 2.3B in Series C

TechNode reported on Oct 12, 2026 that Infinigence AI, a Chinese company founded in 2023 whose software runs AI models across different chip platforms, completed a RMB 2.3 billion Series C. Its total funding is now RMB 4.3 billion. The figures come from company materials.

## Key facts
- Series C: RMB 2.3B; cumulative financing RMB 4.3B (company materials of Oct 12, 2026; investors not named by TechNode)
- Platform connects 37,000 petaflops of computing capacity across 16 mainstream chip types; supports mixed-chip training on Chinese and international processors
- Company figures: daily token usage on its model-service platform grew 40-fold from December 2025 to July 2026
- Company figures: its cross-cluster inference architecture cut time to first token by 51.5% and cost per token by 37.5%
- Also sells inference services and infrastructure for enterprise agents (gaming, healthcare, legal services, energy)

## What happened

TechNode published a short report based on materials from the company. Infinigence AI builds a software layer that lets one model run
on chips from many vendors; TechNode says it supports training on a mix of Chinese and international processors.

## Why it matters

Chinese AI companies run models on chips from many domestic and foreign vendors. Software that hides those differences is one layer
of that ecosystem, and RMB 2.3B is a large round for it. All performance numbers are the company's own.
