Latitude is a pioneer in AI gaming, offering immersive, AI-driven storytelling experiences through products like AI Dungeon.
Latitude, founded in 2019, is a leader in the AI gaming industry, best known for their flagship product, AI Dungeon. The company revolutionizes the gaming experience by using AI to facilitate collaborative storytelling, allowing players to engage in rich, narrative-driven adventures without the constraints of traditional game mechanics. This innovative use case leverages advanced language models to create a dynamic, interactive experience, setting Latitude apart in the gaming world.
As Latitude scaled its user base, they encountered significant challenges with data management and infrastructure scalability. The company's need for real-time, comprehensive analytics to support their AI-driven narratives required a robust database solution capable of handling large volumes of time-series data. Maintaining continuous availability and managing operational complexities were critical issues, particularly given the high cost and performance demands associated with AI workloads.
By integrating Timescale, Latitude has achieved substantial improvements in data management efficiency. The platform's high compression capabilities and continuous aggregates have enabled the company to reduce storage costs by approximately $12,000 monthly, while still providing rapid query performance. This has allowed Latitude to maintain detailed, real-time analytics without sacrificing speed, supporting their mission to deliver immersive AI-driven gaming experiences.
