Expert Scale Joins NVIDIA Inception

Expert Scale, Inc. today announced that it has been accepted into NVIDIA Inception, NVIDIA’s program for startups building on accelerated computing.

Expert Scale builds the Apex Replicant platform. Companies use it to turn one expert’s knowledge into a Digital Protégé — an AI that answers in that expert’s words, from that expert’s material, and is available around the clock. The protégé only knows what the expert has taught it.

What the program provides

NVIDIA Inception gives member companies access to compute credits, technical training and engineering resources, and go-to-market support such as inclusion in NVIDIA’s startup directory. Membership is free and does not involve an investment in the member company.

Why it matters for customers

Every hour a Digital Protégé spends on the phone or in chat costs real money in inference. That cost sits directly underneath what Expert Scale charges for a session hour.

Program compute credits reduce that cost. The savings go toward the same two things Expert Scale has been putting them toward all year: keeping session pricing where customers can afford it, and extending how long a bootstrapped company can keep building.

The technical side matters too. Expert Scale runs a multi-model architecture — several models working together to keep a protégé grounded in what its expert actually said. Access to NVIDIA’s engineering resources gives that work a faster path.

“Our whole product is somebody’s real expertise, answering in real time. The bill for that is compute, and we pay it every hour a protégé is working,” said Drew Harris, CEO, Co-Founder and Chief Product Technology Officer at Expert Scale, Inc. “Inception takes weight off that bill. It also puts us next to the engineers who build the hardware our customers’ protégés run on. Both of those are worth having.”

The Apex Replicant platform is available now at apexreplicant.ai. Companies evaluating knowledge preservation, succession, or expert-access programs can reach the team at info@expertscale.ai.
