Ora Computing

Ora Computing is a deep-tech software startup developing algorithms for large language model (LLM) compression and optimization, enabling AI inference on more compact, efficient models rather than massive general-purpose cloud deployments. Founded in early 2025 by Dr. Stefan Sack and Dr. Raimel Medina, the company is based in Vienna, Austria, and targets silicon vendors, AI enterprises, OEMs, and cloud providers. Ora raised a EUR 3.5M Seed round in 2026 following a Pre-Seed financing round in early 2025, and plans to expand its team and compression offerings for customers seeking cost-efficient, use-case-specific AI models. The company operates on the premise that the next wave of AI adoption will be driven by highly optimized compact models rather than scale alone.
