Case Study: Hooktheory achieves 40% faster AI inference with Beam

How Hooktheory is Infusing Songwriting with AI—Powered by Beam

Hooktheory, a music composition platform, needed a scalable and reliable GPU hosting solution to deploy its flagship AI model, Aria, for real-time music generation. Their previous attempts with other cloud providers left them unable to access elastic compute and struggling with latency and reliability, which are critical for their users' creative workflow. They turned to Beam's serverless AI infrastructure to solve these challenges.

By using Beam, Hooktheory gained access to GPUs on-demand and flexible autoscaling, which allowed them to easily experiment with hardware and eliminate DevOps. The solution delivered measurable results, including a 40% reduction in latency by switching to an RTX 4090 and achieving over 99.99% production uptime, handling hundreds of thousands of daily inference requests. Beam's infrastructure and support enabled Hooktheory to successfully productize their AI and focus on their core product.
