Specialises in image and video latency — it sells the response time rather than the model, fast enough to work in real time

About the company
fal was founded in 2021 by Burkay Gur and Gorkem Yurtseven, who came out of Amazon and Coinbase, and picked a narrow infrastructural niche: running generative image and video models fast. What it sells is latency rather than a model — products that must return a result in seconds run on fal, and the whole platform is built for that. GPU rental by the hour and hosting your own model sit alongside. There is no subscription: you pay per model call or per second of video, so a monthly price does not apply and the bill follows load.
