Brett Harrison’s Architect bets auctions can make AI inference cheaper

Architect Financial Technologies' Liquid Inference platform lets providers bid for model-serving jobs in real time, with pricing tied to marginal costs Brett Harrison thinks AI inference should be priced like a trade, not a menu item. The CEO of Architect Financial Technologies is making the case for an auction-based marketplace for AI inference. His argument is that letting providers set prices based on their marginal costs could push the cost of running AI models down. Architect launched a platform built on that idea, called Liquid Inference , on or around October 7, 2026.
