DeepGEMM is DeepSeek's open-source library of highly optimized FP8 General Matrix Multiplication (GEMM) kernels targeting NVIDIA SM90/SM100 GPUs — the H100, H800, and Blackwell class. The headline feature is a lightweight just-in-time (JIT) compiler that eliminates the need for offline CUDA compilation at install time, dramatically lowering the barrier for teams who want raw GPU throughput without complex build pipelines. The library covers FP8 and FP4 dense GEMMs, BF16 accumulation, grouped GEMMs for Mixture-of-Experts architectures with overlapped NVLink communication, and multi-query attention scoring kernels. On H800 hardware DeepGEMM posts up to 1,550 TFLOPS — competitive with hand-tuned vendor libraries — while remaining fully open source under the MIT license. For LLM inference teams running on H100/H800 clusters, DeepGEMM slots directly into inference stacks like vLLM and SGLang. It's especially notable because it came from DeepSeek's internal training infrastructure, meaning it's been battle-tested at the scale that produced some of 2026's most cost-efficient models. This isn't research code — it's production tooling going public.

Tines Story Copilot is an AI-powered chat interface for the Tines intelligent automation storyboard — used by security operations, IT, and enterprise automation teams — that lets users build, understand, modify, and manage complex multi-step workflows using natural language rather than manually dragging and connecting nodes. Featured on Product Hunt today, it's available to all Tines tenants including the free Community Edition. The Copilot is part of Tines' broader AI Interaction Layer strategy that unifies agents, copilots, and conventional automation into a single platform. You describe the workflow you need — "when a new Jira ticket is created, check it against our threat intel feeds, then notify the relevant Slack channel and create a ServiceNow incident if it matches" — and Copilot generates the full storyboard flow. Existing workflows can be interrogated the same way: ask what a complex legacy playbook does and get a plain-English explanation. Tines transitions to credit-based AI pricing on May 1, 2026, so users exploring the Copilot have a window to test it in full before usage starts drawing credits. For security teams managing hundreds of automated playbooks, the ability to understand and modify existing workflows through conversation rather than reverse-engineering node connections is a significant maintenance time-saver.
Reviewer scorecard
“If you're running inference on H100s or H800s, DeepGEMM is an immediate drop-in for the hottest path in your stack. The JIT approach means you're not fighting CUDA version mismatches, and 1,550 TFLOPS is a number that makes you pay attention. Already integrates with vLLM — just use it.”
“Natural language workflow creation is most valuable for maintenance, not initial build — being able to ask 'what does this 200-step playbook do?' and get a coherent answer saves serious time for any team inheriting legacy automation. The Community Edition availability means you can test it at zero cost before the credit model kicks in May 1st.”
“This is only useful if you're already running H100/H800 clusters — consumer GPU users get nothing here. Documentation is still thin in places, and support for anything below SM90 is explicitly not a priority. Great for DeepSeek's own infra needs; might be too narrow for most teams.”
“'Build workflows in plain English' is a well-worn promise that usually breaks on anything beyond simple linear flows. Complex security orchestration with conditional logic, error handling, and integration-specific edge cases still requires deep platform expertise — the Copilot may generate plausible-looking storyboards that fail silently in production. Watch the credit costs carefully after May 1st.”
“DeepSeek consistently publishes its internal tooling and each release raises the efficiency ceiling for the whole industry. DeepGEMM is another piece of the puzzle that makes frontier inference cheaper — which ultimately benefits everyone downstream from model providers to end users.”
“Security automation is one of the highest-leverage areas for AI-augmented work — the backlog of manual incident response tasks that need automation is enormous, and the bottleneck is almost always building and maintaining the flows. Copilots that lower the floor for workflow creation will dramatically expand which teams can automate and how fast they can iterate.”
“Far outside the creative tooling space but the downstream effect matters: faster, cheaper inference means the models powering creative AI tools get cheaper to run. Not something a designer touches directly, but the efficiency wins flow through to them eventually.”
“For non-developer teams who need automation but lack engineering bandwidth, being able to describe a workflow and have it built is transformative. The ability to interrogate existing workflows in plain English also makes Tines accessible to new team members who need to understand what's already been built without a senior engineer walking them through it.”
