CoreWeave acquires agent-training startup OpenPipe


CoreWeave hopes the YC-backed startup will help it expand down the stack, and cash in on enterprises developing AI agents.

“Reinforcement learning is emerging as a pivotal force to strengthen model performance on agentic and reasoning tasks,” said Brian Venturo, Co-founder of CoreWeave, in a statement to TechCrunch. The deal marks CoreWeave’s latest attempt to expand down the stack, following its acquisition of the AI developer platform, Weights & Biases, in March. This kind of customer-specific training requires a lot of computing resources, and by acquiring OpenPipe, CoreWeave hopes to both power and offer such services.
