Startups gain new tools on Google Cloud
Dozens of AI startups across healthcare, security and media are building products with Google Cloud’s Gemini and infrastructure.
Google Cloud says AI startups are increasingly turning to its technology stack, with more than 60% of global generative AI startups building on its infrastructure. Nine of the world’s top ten AI labs also rely on its cloud services.
To support this momentum, Google Cloud hosted its first AI Builders Forum in Silicon Valley, where hundreds of founders gathered to hear about new tools, infrastructure and programmes designed to accelerate innovation.
Google Cloud has also released a technical guide to help startups build and scale AI agents, including retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) and multimodal approaches. The guide highlights leveraging Google’s agentic development kit and agent-to-agent tools.
The support is bolstered by the Google for Startups Cloud Program, which offers credits worth up to $350,000, mentorship and access to partner AI models from Anthropic and Meta. Google says its goal is to give startups the technology and resources to launch, scale and compete globally.
