Read AI has been rapidly delivering new features that customers want—for example, custom integrations with business applications including Google Meet, Zoom, Slack, Microsoft Teams, Salesforce, Hubspot, Gmail, Outlook, Jira, Confluence, and others.
↗Around 30 percent of Read AI’s customers are outside the United States, particularly in Africa and South America.
↗As a result, Read AI reduced infrastructure costs by 20 percent, improved performance, and sped up time to market.
↗As of October 2024, Read experienced over 700 percent growth in active users, and it runs 89 percent of its CPU workloads, which constitute 41 percent of its total workloads, on Graviton instances.
↗The company plans to move all compatible CPU workloads to Graviton instances. “When we migrated the services to Graviton instances, there was no tuning necessary and nothing additional required, and we immediately saw a 20 percent reduction of infrastructure costs,” says Williams.
Reported impact
Business outcome
Read AI is currently adopting AWS Graviton4 instances for additional performance benefits. “We want to be on the preview list for every release of Graviton instances so that we can evaluate them as soon as possible,” says Williams. “Using Graviton instances means that we are comfortable being more diverse in our experiments, so engineers can spin up additional resources to run even small experiments, which makes us very nimble going forward.” In October 2024, the company introduced a bundle of new features, including an iOS application for real-world meetings and a Chrome extension—Read AI for Gmail—that brings AI to users’ inboxes. The company is also expanding its generative AI–powered experiences. “Using Graviton instances, we can ship diverse features with a quick turnaround, even with a small team,” says Williams. AWS Graviton–based instances were cost-effective, and the available cores provided the capacity we needed to deliver an AI copilot wherever you work.

Solution
Read AI needed to keep up with explosive global growth, including recognition as the sixth fastest-growing AI vendor in the world. As a startup in the field of productivity tools powered by artificial intelligence (AI), Read AI’s competitive edge comes in part from how simply it integrates with various collaboration tools—facilitating its “copilot everywhere” solutions—and from its ability to deliver new features ahead of competitors. In 2024, Read AI adopted AWS Graviton–based Amazon EC2 instances , which are powered by custom-designed AWS Graviton server processors. AWS Graviton–based instances were cost-effective, and the available cores provided the capacity we needed to deliver an AI copilot wherever you work.
