London-based Spectral Compute secured $6 million led by Costanoa with Crucible and angels to advance SCALE, a software framework that lets applications written for Nvidia CUDA run on competing GPUs. The approach is “source-by-code,” preserving ownership of original CUDA code and complying with licensing, unlike projects like ZLUDA. Today, compatibility covers select AMD architectures, with plans to expand to Intel and startups. SCALE is free for non-commercial use; commercial licensing varies by deployment, including cloud providers and bespoke on‑prem enterprise models. Founded in 2018 by Michael Søndergaard, Chris Kitching, Nicholas Tomlinson, and Francois Souchay, the 19‑person team will use funds for product development, go‑to‑market acceleration, and hiring.
