EdgeFlow is the inference acceleration engine inside EdgeMatrix — SandLogic's vendor-neutral inference layer. It runs LLMs, CNNs, and Transformer models up to 10× faster than baseline, reduces compute cost by up to 70%, and cuts energy use by up to 60% versus competing inference frameworks (Groq, Together.ai, Fireworks, OctoAI). EdgeFlow is SandLogic's inference engine for third-party silicon — NVIDIA, AMD, Intel, ARM, and Qualcomm.

How much faster is EdgeFlow than vLLM?

EdgeFlow v0.0.4 delivers +73% throughput versus vLLM 0.10.2 on NVIDIA L40s and +29% on NVIDIA A100, measured on the Top-25 enterprise SLMs. On Llama-3.3-70B-Instruct specifically, EdgeFlow achieves 33.48 tokens/sec on L40s (vs 19.78 baseline — 69.26% improvement, 40.91% cost saving) and 84.24 tokens/sec on A100 (vs 48.87 baseline — 72.34% improvement, 41.78% cost saving).

What hardware does EdgeFlow support?

EdgeFlow runs on the full silicon envelope enterprises actually deploy: NVIDIA GPUs (H100, A100, L40s, L4), AMD CPUs and GPUs with ROCm, Intel (Gaudi, Xeon, Arc), ARM-class processors from data-center cores to Apple M-series and Raspberry Pi, and the Qualcomm QDC stack. The same compiled artifact runs across these targets — adding a new silicon platform is days of integration, not quarters of bespoke porting.

How does EdgeFlow achieve its throughput advantage?

Three engineered mechanisms compound to drive throughput. First, hybrid KV-cache reuse — prefix-level cache for shared prompts (system messages, RAG context) and entity-level cache for retrieved chunks; cache hits skip the model entirely. Second, cache-aware scheduling — routes requests based on cache locality, not round-robin. Third, dynamic compiler dispatch — just-in-time kernel selection based on batch shape, sequence length, and target device with no static configuration. Together these mechanics deliver ~20% efficiency gain at the runtime layer alone.

How many model architectures does EdgeFlow support?

EdgeFlow ships pre-tuned for 193 model architectures across eight families: Transformers (Llama, Qwen, Mistral, Shakti, Phi, DeepSeek, Gemma), VLMs (Shakti-VLM, Qwen2-VL, LLaVA), State Space Models (Mamba, Mamba-2, Jamba), Linear Attention / RWKV, Liquid Foundation Models, CNNs (ResNet, YOLO, EfficientNet, MobileNet), Mixture of Experts (Mixtral, DeepSeek-V3), and Diffusion (Stable Diffusion, SDXL, Flux). New architectures integrate in days, not quarters.

// SCOPE

EdgeFlow is the inference engine inside EdgeMatrix. EdgeMatrix has two engines, split by the silicon they target: EdgeFlow — this one — runs models across third-party silicon (NVIDIA, AMD, Intel, ARM, Qualcomm); and CORE, the compiler + runtime for SandLogic's own silicon (ExSLerate, Krsna). This page is the third-party-silicon engine — how the same workload runs faster, cheaper, on fewer watts.

// WHY EDGEFLOW

Faster than the rest. On every device.

// FEATURE 01

Blazing fast inference

Accelerate token generation across LLMs, CNNs, and Transformers with minimal latency. Up to 10× faster on production workloads.

// FEATURE 02

Universal hardware compatibility

Optimized for NVIDIA, AMD, Intel, ARM, and Qualcomm — H100-class GPUs to Apple M-series and Raspberry Pi. Same engine, every device class.

// FEATURE 03

Enterprise-ready

Plug seamlessly into your AI workflows — chatbots, OCR, real-time document processing, voice agents, agentic pipelines.

// FEATURE 04

Adaptive model coverage

CNN, RNN, and Transformer architectures handled by the same dispatch pipeline. 193 model architectures pre-tuned for fastest inference.

// FEATURE 05

Intelligent memory reuse

Hardware-aware graph optimization and memory traffic minimization compound to drive throughput up while pushing energy use down.

// FEATURE 06

Kernel-free compilation

No bespoke kernel writing per model or per silicon target. Compile once; deploy across the supported hardware envelope.

// COST REDUCTION

Reduce inference costs by over 70%.

// MODEL × SILICON COVERAGE

What EdgeFlow runs, where.

EdgeFlow runs any of these model families across the third-party silicon enterprises actually buy. Eight architecture families × five silicon platforms = forty paths. We won't claim every path is production-ready — but most are, and the rest are honestly labeled.

Each cell encodes EdgeFlow's coverage maturity. Production = live customer deployments. Beta = customer pilots. Supported = EdgeFlow runs the architecture, no customer scenarios yet. Research = engineering validation only. Roadmap = planned.

// FOOTNOTE · DIFFUSION ON EDGE

Diffusion is marked roadmap on ARM and Qualcomm — not because EdgeFlow can't run the workload, but because the preprocessing pipeline (T5-XXL / CLIP text encoders) carries a memory footprint that exceeds edge silicon budgets. Architectural mismatch at the silicon layer, not an EdgeFlow gap.

// FOOTNOTE · "SUPPORTED" vs "PRODUCTION"

Cells marked supported (indigo) mean EdgeFlow runs the model × silicon combination today, but we don't yet have named customer deployments on that combination. Editorial discipline: "production" requires a customer scenario.

// ENTERPRISE-READY

Plug seamlessly into your AI workflows.

EdgeFlow is the inference layer beneath the workflows enterprises already run — chatbots, OCR, document processing, voice agents, agentic pipelines, multimodal applications.

CHATBOTS

Sustained agentic loads with low-latency turn-taking. EdgeFlow keeps response times within real-time conversation bounds even under concurrent fleets.

OCR & DOCUMENT AI

High-throughput page processing for invoices, contracts, KYC, claims. CNN preprocessing pipeline + LLM understanding in the same engine.

VOICE AGENTS

ASR + LLM + TTS in one inference pipeline. Time-to-first-token measured in milliseconds, not seconds.

AGENTIC AI

Multi-step tool invocations, RAG retrieval, deterministic dispatch. EdgeFlow keeps the cost of multi-step agent chains tractable at scale.

REAL-TIME ANALYTICS

Streaming inference for fraud detection, log analysis, anomaly detection. Throughput sustained on commodity silicon.

MULTIMODAL

VLM, speech, and document pipelines on the same engine. No separate inference stack per modality.
