Mafutai — Africa’s GPU Supergrid

We are fusing bare-metal performance, remote GPU nodes, and generative ops pipelines into one local-first AI cloud. The control room is spinning up — expect neural-grade speed, sub-millisecond routing, and a marketplace for every serious model builder on the continent.

We’re testing and hardening the supergrid throughout 2025. Full public rollout kicks off in January 2026.

Launch Vector

  • Private beta training circuits live in Johannesburg
  • ⚙️ Provider onboarding mesh with automated hardening
  • 🚀 Public launch ETA once latency audits finish

Tech Stack DNA

Hybrid Vultr + bare-metal rigs, containerized micro-schedulers, Celery pipelines, Stripe orchestration, and a rootless agent framework keeping GPUs humming. Observability is Grafana + OpenTelemetry, sealed with WireGuard lanes.

Why It Hits Different

Latency is local, power is priced in ZAR, and every node is vetted for AI inference, training, and RAG workloads. Get your workloads closer to your users, keep data sovereignty intact, and scale without the overseas tax.
