# Reflection AI signs $1B compute deal with Nebius

*2026-07-14 · Source: [TechCrunch](https://techcrunch.com/2026/07/14/reflection-inks-1b-compute-deal-with-nebius/)*

Reflection AI, an open-source AI startup founded in 2024, has signed a $1 billion deal for compute access from Nebius. The deal secures infrastructure to support Reflection's continued development of open source AI models.

**Why it matters:** It shows the scale of compute deals now being struck by well-funded open-source AI labs, not just closed frontier labs.

**Topics:** chips, business, open source
