Code execution is the ultimate tool call. Once an LLM can run its own code, it can run loops, access APIs, and extract the result. In this video, a @windsurf IDE uses ForeverVM to make HTTP calls to check a list of Python packages against the latest PyPi version.

ForeverVM: Run AI-generated code in stateful sandboxes that run forever

Trump is using the power of the US government to intimidate individual companies, universities, and citizens. Intimidation and a disregard for due process are grave dangers to our democracy and its institutions. This puts sectors of society into a collective action problem where

Life update!

Built for collaboration, compute, and AI sandboxes, the startup Jamsocket finds the right partner to scale its vision. Feat. Paul Butler, Taylor Baldwin thenewstack.io/jamsockets-ses…

We’re thrilled to share that Jamsocket is joining Modal! We’ve known Paul Butler and Taylor Baldwin for years now, and deeply admire their technical vision and execution in everything they’ve built. They’re cooking up exciting things at Modal already, more on this soon :)

Welcome to the team Paul Butler + Taylor Baldwin! 💚

Today marks 15 years in NYC, and it’s still the best city in the world.

At Modal we've built every layer of the AI infra stack from scratch — from filesystems and networking to our own async queues and multi-cloud GPU orchestration. I sat down with Arjun Narayan from @amplifypartners to go into depth on all of this, including the fun ways the

Used Modal for the first time today - immediate "oh, this is how backends should work" moment, similar to using Vercel for the first time for frontend deployments. Unbelievable piece of software

We’re cohosting an event with Modal here in NYC on September 10! Come meet folks from the team and learn more about our take on the modern Python developer experience. See you there 🐍🐍🐍 (Link below)

I like making GPUs go brrt at Modal. I wrote up what I've learned along the way in an extension to the GPU Glossary -- our "CUDA Docs for Humans". Introducing: the GPU 𝔓𝔢𝔯𝔣𝔬𝔯𝔪𝔞𝔫𝔠𝔢 Glossary. modal.com/gpu-glossary/p…

75% of households report thinking about GPU performance “a lot” or “all the time”. So we built some resources to help them!

We're thrilled to share Modal Notebooks: a new, powerful cloud-hosted GPU notebook. It has modern real-time collaborative editing and is backed by our AI infrastructure — swap GPUs in seconds. Modal Notebooks are generally available, and you can start using them now. 🧵

We've raised our Series B! We’re excited to grow our team and continue building AI-native infrastructure to power the next generation of applications. Thank you to our investors, the Modal team, and our community 💚 axios.com/pro/enterprise…

It's true – Modal has raised a $87M Series B at a $1.1B valuation to advance the future of AI infrastructure.  Thank you to Lux Capital, Redpoint, Amplify Partners, and others. Now more than ever, AI demands a complete reinvention of traditional compute infrastructure

The best part about working on Modal is watching our customers literally build the future. Today, they’re using Modal for everything from generating AI music to powering real-world robots to curing cancer. And yet, this is just the beginning. We have so much more to build.
