CoreWeave Buying Marimo To Expand Unified AI Developer Platform

By Amit Chowdhry ● Nov 3, 2025

CoreWeave announced that it has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Marimo Inc., the company behind the open-source marimo notebook. Marimo’s AI-native, reactive development environment for Python is designed for AI and data workloads, and its integration will strengthen CoreWeave’s mission to build the most comprehensive developer platform for artificial intelligence.

CoreWeave, the first cloud infrastructure purpose-built for AI, powers many of the world’s leading labs, enterprises, and developers in rushing from concept to deployment. By bringing Marimo into its ecosystem, CoreWeave combines its high-performance cloud infrastructure with open-source innovation, accelerating how developers build, train, and deploy AI applications.

Marimo’s technology will be integrated directly into CoreWeave Cloud to create a unified developer experience spanning training, inference, data movement, and continuous iteration. The acquisition will enhance CoreWeave’s vertically integrated platform, enabling developers to build, scale, and deploy AI applications more efficiently.

Marimo’s flagship marimo notebook offers a reproducible and git-friendly environment for Python developers, allowing seamless transition from early experimentation to full-scale production deployment. Marimo will join CoreWeave’s growing ecosystem that includes Weights & Biases and OpenPipe, augmenting the platform’s MLOps and reinforcement learning capabilities.

CoreWeave will continue to support and advance Marimo’s open-source roadmap, maintaining its permissive licensing and transparency-driven development approach. The acquisition follows a series of recent strategic moves by CoreWeave, including its May 2025 acquisition of Weights & Biases to build an end-to-end AI developer platform, and its planned acquisition of Monolith AI, an engineering AI pioneer.

Terms of the transaction were not disclosed. Morgan Stanley served as the exclusive financial advisor to Marimo.

KEY QUOTES:

“This is about supporting the open-source community and unlocking the pace of innovation that modern AI demands. CoreWeave is creating the most complete environment for AI development, from prototype to production, and with Marimo as part of our platform we are giving builders the tools to iterate faster and deploy smarter across every stage of the AI lifecycle.”

Brian Venturo, Co-founder and Chief Strategy Officer, CoreWeave

“We created marimo because we believed that Python developers deserved a dramatically better programming environment for working with data, one that blended the best parts of interactive computing with the reusability and reproducibility of traditional software. Joining CoreWeave lets us double down on that vision and execute on it at an even greater scale. Our shared goal is to build the world’s best programming environment for AI and data work.”

Akshay Agrawal, Co-founder and Chief Executive Officer, Marimo
