# DigitalOcean

A cloud platform selling GPU-powered AI inference, managed agents, and core cloud compute to AI application builders and developers.

**Route:** surfaced by the Web Application and Frontend Hosting Platform lane's de-branded queries → competitor to vercel.com.

**Why it's on the map:** Offers the same AI cloud infrastructure (GPU compute, inference engine, managed agents) to the same frontend and AI/agent developers that Vercel targets, putting both on the same shortlist for building and deploying AI-powered applications.

**Receipts** (verbatim from its page this run):

> AI-Native Cloud

> Over 70 models, open-weighted and frontier, on one endpoint

> Inference Engine
