One language, any hardware. Systems-level performance. Pythonic syntax.
Mojo unifies high-level AI development with low-level systems programming. Write once, deploy everywhere - from CPUs to GPUs - without vendor lock-in.
Mojo highlights
Why we built Mojo?
You're forced to choose: NVIDIA's CUDA, AMD's ROCm, or Intel's oneAPI. Rewrite everything when you switch vendors. Your code becomes a hostage to hardware politics.
Prototype in Python. Rewrite in C++ for production. Debug across language boundaries. Your team splits into 'researchers' and 'engineers' - neither can work on the full stack.
Python is 1000x too slow for production AI. The GIL blocks true parallelism. Can't access GPUs directly. Every optimization means dropping into C extensions. Simplicity becomes a liability at scale.
PyTorch for training. TensorRT for inference. vLLM for serving. Each tool has its own bugs, limitations, and learning curve. Integration nightmares multiply with every component.
C++ gives you footguns by default. Race conditions in parallel code. Memory leaks that OOM your servers. Segfaults in production at 3 AM.
30-minute build times. Cryptic template errors. Debuggers that can't inspect GPU state. Profilers that lie about performance. Modern developers deserve tools that accelerate, not frustrate.



Why should I use Mojo?
Easier
GPU Programming Made Easy
Traditionally, writing custom GPU code means diving into CUDA, managing memory, and compiling separate device code. Mojo simplifies the whole experience while unlocking top-tier performance on NVIDIA and AMD GPUs.
Performant
Bare metal performance on any GPU
Get raw GPU performance without complex toolchains. Mojo makes it easy to write high-performance kernels with intuitive syntax, zero boilerplate, and native support for NVIDIA, AMD, and more.
Interoperable
Use Mojo to extend python
Mojo interoperates natively with Python so you can speed up bottlenecks without rewriting everything. Start with one function, scale as needed—Mojo fits into your codebase
Community
Build with us in the open to create the future of AI
Mojo has more than  750K+ lines of open-source code with an active community of 50K+ members. We're actively working to open even more to build a transparent, developer-first foundation for the future of AI infrastructure.
