> What products/services does Julia Computing sell to justify that Series A? The article doesn't mention anything.

That's the entire second paragraph of the article. JuliaHub is a paid cloud computing service for running Julia code and JuliaSim/JuliaSPICE/Pumas are paid domain-specific modeling and simulation products. See also some of the other comments here from Keno[1] and Chris Rackauckas[2]:

I'm equating "product" with "revenue-generating product." A bit presumptuous, I know, (the objective of a company is to make money from those who buy its products and services, where products and services are something other than shares) but the article doesn't mention any source of revenue for the company.
Yes, that's what I figured you meant, and that's precisely what that paragraph and my comment above detail. You can enter a credit card into JuliaHub and start running large scale distributed compute on CPUs and GPUs right now. Or you can email us about procuring an enterprise version for your whole team and/or licensing JuliaSim or Pumas.
Where do I find payment rates/plans information? On the "Pricing" page:

https://juliahub.com/lp/pricing

I see Free, Pay as You Go, and Contact Sales.

Clicking the middle option, I see that I must be logged in to view anything.

What you want to do with this information is up to you, but it doesn't look good from the customer side. And from the perspective of someone trying to figure out if Julia Computing has a future as a money-making enterprise, it looks iffy at best.
