Meta plans deployment of its custom Arke chips in first-half 2027, followed by next-generation Astrid chips at 2027 year-end.

The supplied Telegram updates identify two distinct steps in Meta’s in-house chip roadmap. Arke is scheduled for deployment in the first half of 2027, while next-generation Astrid is scheduled for rollout at the end of 2027.

A separate update attributes to Meta the claim that its chips will save money and energy compared with NVIDIA. No numerical cost or energy comparison, workload definition, or benchmark methodology accompanies that claim.

Both dates are deployment plans, not completed operating milestones. The source does not disclose chip quantities, rack configurations, manufacturing details, committed power capacity, or realized financial savings.
