AI Cloud Service launch via Sai Computing subsidiary
Company: Applied Digital
What the later record shows
Delivered late
The cloud business launched in May 2023. In January 2024, after the end-2023 target, the company said component delays held back cluster commissioning. The business was later operating and generating revenue, but no passage dates when it became fully operational.
“While the delay in network components did have a significant impact on the timing of commissioning clusters and on our revenue and EBITDA”

How we checked this
Checked on October 12, 2026. The cited source supports every part of this claim.
The release reports the AI Cloud Service launch, names Sai Computing as the wholly owned subsidiary offering it, and gives the end-of-2023 target. That target sentence directly follows the Character A.I. agreement, so it may refer specifically to that customer's service.

- Applied Digital launched its AI Cloud Service
- The AI Cloud Service is offered through wholly owned subsidiary Sai Computing
- The service provides high-performance computing power for AI and machine learning applications
- The service was expected to be fully operational by the end of 2023
