Technological Agnosticism and Scalability
SigOpt's services are fully agnostic to modeling frameworks, compute stacks, orchestration setups, or coding environments. This design choice ensures that the platform works equally well for startups with a few modelers and a limited number of tuning jobs each month, as well as for leading modeling teams with thousands of modelers and millions of concurrent tuning jobs. This scalability makes SigOpt a flexible solution for a wide range of business sizes and needs.
