Products, side by side
Algorithmic pairing — assembled from recorded fields, not hand-checked
Alphabet (Google)
Platform
Lets analysts create, train and run machine-learning and generative-AI models inside BigQuery with GoogleSQL — from trained regression and forecasting models to remote calls on Gemini and Cloud AI APIs — without moving the data out.
Google Cloud's platform for training, tuning, serving and evaluating models and agents.
Google Cloud's customer-experience suite — Customer Experience Agent Studio, Agent Assist, Customer Experience Insights and Contact Center as a Service — for building AI agents and assisting human agents across contact-centre channels.
Model API
A developer API, distinct from the consumer Gemini app, for integrating Gemini and Gemma models into applications and billed per token.
Hardware
Google's custom AI accelerator chips, rented by the chip-hour on Google Cloud for training and serving machine learning models.
Cerebras Systems
Platform
Managed training/fine-tuning cloud for models from 1B to tens-of-trillions of parameters without manual sharding or model-parallelism configuration, billed pay-per-hour or pay-per-model (Cerebras-run custom training).
Model API
Hosted inference service that serves open-weight models on Cerebras wafer-scale hardware, billed per token.
Hardware
Wafer-scale processor — now WSE-3 Turbo (WSE-3T), four trillion transistors and 900,000 AI cores — sold inside Cerebras' rack-scale systems: three WSE-3T processors power the CS-4, the successor to the WSE-3-based CS-3.
No counterpart
Alphabet (Google) sells these in a stack layer with no product recorded for Cerebras Systems yet — nothing on the other side to compare them against.
