Helio AG is a Swiss-based startup founded in 2019 that aims to revolutionize cloud workloads, particularly in 3D rendering and machine learning, by optimizing them for reduced emissions, improved pricing, and scalability.
The company's slogan, "Optimize your cloud workloads like 3D-rendering for fewer emissions, better price, and larger scale," encapsulates its mission to address the environmental impact and resource inefficiency prevalent in data centers.
With data centers currently consuming up to 8% of global power and wasting over 80% of computing resources, Helio offers a carbon-aware cloud solution to mitigate these issues. Through constant optimization, the platform ensures minimal emissions, cost-effectiveness, and scalability in executing various computing jobs.
