Baseten Fuels Expansion with $75M Series C and Upgrade to Baseten.com
By Monica Stankova access_time 2 min read

Baseten, a leading inference platform for AI-native products, has raised $75 million in a Series C funding round co-led by IVP and Spark, with participation from Greylock, Conviction, South Park Commons, 01 Advisors, and Lachy Groom. According to the company, the funds will support product innovation, team expansion, and geographic growth.


Our customers prioritize bringing high-quality products to market quickly, and they choose us to help make that happen. Speed, reliability, and cost-efficiency are non-negotiables, and that’s where we devote 100 percent of our focus. It’s that dedication—and the trust we’ve built with an incredible group of customers who have collectively raised billions—that has allowed us to grow fivefold in the past year with basically zero churn.

In addition to the funding, the company appears to have secured its Exact Brand Match (EBM) domain, Baseten.com, upgrading from Baseten.co.

While .co is commonly used by startups as an abbreviation for “company” or “corporation,” it is actually the country code top-level domain (ccTLD) for Colombia and comes with certain risks and limitations for businesses. One key challenge is that .co can easily be mistaken for .com, potentially leading to misdirected traffic and emails. This confusion is a frequent drawback of using non-.com extensions, particularly for brands with global ambitions aiming to maximise reach and recognition.

Upgrading to Baseten.com ensures a stronger online presence, making it easier for users to find the company while reinforcing brand credibility and recognition. The move also supports Baseten’s geographic growth, ensuring a more accessible and globally recognisable domain as the company expands into new markets.

*The name Baseten comes from the base-10 number system, the fundamental numerical system used worldwide.
