AI research lab building large language models. Below is the stack powering OpenAI, based on widely reported engineering information.

## OpenAI Tech Stack

- **Frontend:** Next.js, React, TypeScript
- **Backend:** Python, Rust, Go
- **Database:** PostgreSQL, Redis
- **Hosting / Cloud:** Azure
- **Notable Tools:** Kubernetes, Ray, PyTorch, Kafka

## How to Build a Product Like OpenAI

You do not need OpenAI's full stack to launch. A lean, modern stack (Next.js, Node.js, a managed database) covers the core capabilities; adopt heavier infrastructure only as you scale. UniqueSide builds production-ready MVPs on stacks like this in 15 days, from $8,000.
