Amazon reportedly in talks to buy Decart for about $7 billion

Amazon is reportedly in talks to buy Decart, an AI startup, for about $7 billion, according to the Wall Street Journal; Bloomberg said the negotiations could still collapse. Decart’s appeal is not another chatbot: it builds software meant to help AI workloads run efficiently across competing chips, including Nvidia’s, Google’s, and Amazon’s Trainium. That could make Amazon’s own AI hardware a more practical choice for cloud customers, while Decart’s real-time video and simulation models offer other potential uses. But no terms have been announced, neither company confirmed the report, and Decart was valued at nearly $4 billion in May—so the figure is a possible deal value, not a completed acquisition.
