Willow picks CoreWeave for AI model training and forward-deployed support

Willow Care Inc., maker of the AI dictation app Willow Voice, chose CoreWeave for its forward-deployed support rather than compute alone, according to co-founder and CTO Lawrence Liu.

Liu said CoreWeave's reinforcement learning infrastructure lets Willow focus on eval alignment, while Willow fine-tunes its own speech recognition model and pairs it with a compact post-processing LLM. He said inference demand is growing faster than training as dictation use climbs.
