Nvidia and Palantir announced a partnership to use AI in managing supply chains, with the first deployment targeting Nvidia's own supply chain. The system spans millions of parts, thousands of suppliers, and a global partner network.
A single Vera Rubin rack contains 1.3 million components, according to Nvidia. Palant'tir is integrating open Nemotron models into its Foundry platform, where companies can fine-tune them with their own operational data.
Nvidia cuOpt handles scenario planning and optimization. The system is designed to spot bottlenecks earlier, speed up material allocation, and evaluate alternatives. Decisions and their outcomes feed back into the models so they improve over time.
"Companies in manufacturing, pharma, or energy can run the full stack on their own hardware or in the cloud through the Sovereign AI OS reference architecture," said Palantir. Infrastructure partners include Dell, Cisco, Rackspace, and Nebius.
The announcement follows Palantir's push for companies to run their own models rather than hand their knowledge over to third-party providers. Nvidia has been building out the Nemotron lineup as an alternative to Chinese open-weight models.
Nvidia did not say when the full deployment will be available, and the system's scalability remains an open question. Palantir is showing more details at AIPCon 11.
