What TEN does

TEN Inc. (주식회사 텐) is a South Korean AI infrastructure MLOps company founded in 2020 and headquartered in Seoul's Gangnam district. The company provides a GPU resource orchestration platform built around its proprietary GPU 100-block spatial partitioning technology, which divides a single GPU into up to 100 isolated blocks enabling multiple containers to share resources with near-zero workload interference and approximately 91% performance stability across concurrent processes. The platform architecture spans four products: Coaster, a Kubernetes-extended container platform providing GPU and user permission management; AI Pub Dev, a GPU resource management tool for AI development and training; AI Pub Ops, a Web UI-based MLOps tool for AI service operations with LLM-based anomaly detection; and RA:X, an intelligent infrastructure design service that benchmarks workloads across DGX H100, DGX A100, L40S, L40, A40, and T4 configurations to recommend optimal GPU setups. The company also offers TEN MDC, a modular data center solution for organizations building dedicated AI compute facilities.

TEN's customer base spans large Korean enterprises, government agencies and public institutions, defense and manufacturing companies, national research institutes, and major universities requiring GPU infrastructure for AI development, training, and inference workloads. The company monetizes through three revenue streams: subscription-based platform access for AI Pub (annual billing, inquiry-driven), professional services revenue from RA:X consulting engagements, and managed services from the MDC offering. Go-to-market is direct enterprise sales supplemented by AI Pub's registration on Korea's government procurement marketplace (나라장터 디지털서비스몰), which enables direct contracting without competitive bidding for public sector customers. Pricing is not publicly disclosed; all engagements require sales inquiry. TEN is led by CEO Oh Se-jin (오세진) and has secured approximately $5.82M in funding from Ascendo Ventures, Korea Development Bank, LG Uplus, and Quantum Ventures Korea as of May 2025.

Core offering

TEN provides an MLOps platform (AI workload orchestration) for efficient operation of AI infrastructure, specializing in GPU resource management. Its product stack includes the AI Pub platform (AI Pub Dev for development/training and AI Pub Ops for service operations), the Coaster Kubernetes-extended container platform, and the RAX intelligent infrastructure design consulting service. The company sells these as subscription-based software with custom enterprise pricing and also offers modular data center (MDC) construction services and professional consulting for AI infrastructure deployment.

Product overview

TEN (주식회사 텐) offers an AI infrastructure MLOps platform consisting of four main products. The core platform is Coaster, a Kubernetes-extended container platform that provides GPU resource control and container management. Built on Coaster are AI Pub Dev (for AI development and training resource management) and AI Pub Ops (for AI service operations and deployment). RAX is an intelligent AI infrastructure design and consulting service that helps customers select optimal GPU configurations. Together, these products provide end-to-end AI infrastructure from design and development to operations, enabling GPU resource sharing across multiple teams and services with spatial partitioning, scheduling, and monitoring capabilities.

Products and services

• AI Pub (Dev and Ops platform) AI Pub is a one-stop AI platform built on the Coaster container platform that supports both AI model development (AI Pub Dev) and AI service operations (AI Pub Ops), enabling collaboration among AI modelers, IT engineers, and administrators in a unified platform with GPU block allocation, monitoring, scheduling, and orchestration.
• AI Pub Dev GPU infrastructure resource management tool for AI development and learning that supports workload creation, model training with automatic resource allocation, per-account usage limits, resource group management, scheduler pause/resume, queue priority adjustment, and usage tracking for AI developers.
• AI Pub Ops Web UI-based MLOps tool for AI service operations that provides service creation/management, GPU block resource allocation, real-time monitoring, high availability, rolling updates, scale-out, load balancing, fail-over, anomaly notifications via Slack, and integrations with NetApp Astra (data management) and NeuVector (container security scanning).
• Coaster Kubernetes-extended container platform that enhances GPU resource and user permission management, featuring GPU spatial splitting (100-block partitioning), Kubernetes extension commands for cluster-wide resource querying, user group-based resource access control, and scheduler queue management with priority adjustment.
• RA:X (RAX) Intelligent infrastructure design service for AI that recommends optimal GPU configurations based on workload characteristics, using real-environment benchmarking on DGX H100, DGX A100, L40S, L40, A40, and T4 systems to measure processing speed, GPU utilization, and Inter-Token Latency for LLM services.

Direct peers

• Run:ai (NVIDIA): Run:ai provides a GPU virtualization and orchestration platform for AI workloads, including fractional GPU allocation and dynamic scheduling — essentially the same problem TEN's Coaster and AI Pub solve via Kubernetes extension and 100-block spatial partitioning.
• CoreWeave: CoreWeave is a GPU cloud built around NVIDIA hardware with orchestration tooling for AI training and inference; like TEN it sells optimized GPU utilization plus the surrounding MLOps/admin software rather than raw compute alone.
• Lambda Labs: Lambda provides GPU cloud instances and on-prem GPU clusters with consulting on optimal hardware configurations — directly comparable to RA:X's 'intelligent infrastructure design' offering.
• Anyscale: Anyscale (commercial Ray) provides an AI compute platform that abstracts cluster scheduling and resource management for ML workloads; overlapping with AI Pub Dev on training resource allocation and workload scheduling.
• Determined AI (HPE): Determined AI offers an open-source MLOps platform for training deep learning models on GPU clusters, with built-in scheduling, resource management, and experiment tracking — closely paralleling AI Pub Dev's training workload focus.
• Paperspace (DigitalOcean): Paperspace offers GPU cloud instances and a managed ML platform for training and inference; competes for the same workload orchestration and GPU utilization value proposition as TEN.
• Vast.ai: Vast.ai operates a GPU rental marketplace with fractional GPU options, addressing the same 'squeeze more utilization out of expensive GPUs' problem that drives TEN's spatial partitioning differentiator.

Emerging players

• Modal Labs: Modal provides serverless AI compute infrastructure with auto-scaling and resource abstraction, addressing similar GPU efficiency and developer-experience pain points to AI Pub Ops.

Broad incumbents

• NVIDIA DGX Cloud / AI Enterprise: NVIDIA's enterprise AI software stack (AI Enterprise, DGX Cloud, MIG) bundles GPU virtualization, MLOps and infrastructure — the dominant incumbent alternative that TEN's Coaster/AI Pub must differentiate against.

Regional players

• Rebellions: Rebellions is a Korean AI chip startup building sovereign-AI hardware for Korean enterprises and government; shares the same Korean AI infrastructure buyer base and proximity to public-sector procurement opportunities as TEN.
