We build and operate AI factories — at any size.

From a 100-GPU pilot to a 10,000-GPU cluster, one accountable team designs, builds, runs and certifies your AI infrastructure — then hands it back when you're ready. Same team, same SOPs, same SLAs.

What we do

From general contractor to GPU

One accountable party across the entire delivery stack. We coordinate the general contractor and every subcontractor beneath them — civil, power, cooling, network and hardware — down to the individual GPU running production workloads.

01

General contractor coordination

One accountable party over building shell, civil works, site logistics, permits and overall programme coordination.

02

Power & cooling

MV/LV distribution, UPS, direct-liquid cooling and heat reuse — integrated with Schneider and Vertiv for low PUE at density.

03

Data-center fit-out

Racks, PDUs, containment, structured copper and fibre cabling, and full acceptance testing to a validated standard.

04

Network fabric

InfiniBand and Ethernet spine-leaf, storage and management networks — validated end-to-end with NCCL all-reduce.

05

Compute & storage

HGX / DGX integration, GPU burn-in, and parallel storage tiers on Weka, VAST and DDN — engineered to keep GPUs fed.

06

GPU & platform

OS, Slurm / Kubernetes, orchestration and performance validation — GPUs brought up to live, validated production workloads.

Approach

Capital is commoditized. Operations are not.

The scarce resource in AI infrastructure isn't money or GPUs — it's the small number of people who have actually run frontier-scale clusters in production. Everything we do is built around that team.

01

Operators, not resellers

Perhaps 200–400 engineers globally have delivered frontier-scale AI clusters in production. We are built around a team of them — already onboarded, already operational.

02

You want workloads, not infrastructure

You have data, regulators and investors — not a desire to run a data center or hire an HPC team. We take the whole stack so your people ship outcomes.

03

A hedge against the hardware curve

GPU generations obsolete on an ~18-month cycle. Customers fear the depreciation; our operating model is their way out.

Capabilities

Enterprise-first, sovereign-grade

Built from day one for the industries with the hardest requirements — regulated data, strict isolation, and workloads that can never touch the public cloud.

Enterprise-grade compliance

SOC 2, ISO 27001 and ISAE 3000 — with a track record of reaching certification in under twelve months. Built for pharma, finance, defense and sovereign programmes.

Hard multi-tenant isolation

Physically separated storage, dedicated VLANs and VRFs, per-tenant backends and full audit trails — regulation-ready for HIPAA, the EU AI Act and EHDS.

Air-gapped & sovereign

Fully isolated architectures with no external connectivity — self-hosted repositories, data-diode transfers and autonomous operations. Any jurisdiction, sovereign-grade.

Agentic & on-prem inference

Production agentic workflows and on-prem model serving — including air-gapped AI-assisted development — so sensitive data never leaves your environment.

24/7 operations & SRE

Round-the-clock monitoring, on-call response and SLA-backed uptime — the same operators who build the cluster keep it running in production.

Full audit & observability

Per-tenant audit trails, immutable logging and end-to-end telemetry — evidence-ready for auditors and regulators at any time.

Proof

A sovereign AI factory — bare metal to production in four months.

Turn-key delivery of a fully sovereign AI factory: an empty data center taken to validated production AI training in four months. The automation we invest in once is reused on every build — a later expansion brought a new GPU generation online in about two weeks.

Invest once in automation. Replicate forever.

Technology & partners

Twenty years of vendor relationships

We build on battle-tested infrastructure and long-standing relationships across the AI hardware and software ecosystem — so what we deliver is standard, supportable and future-proof.

Careers

The team cannot be raised — it's built

We are a specialized team of senior builders and operators who have actually run frontier-scale AI clusters in production. No layers, no bureaucracy — just people who take pride in infrastructure that stays up. We hire on capability and track record, and we always want to hear from strong people, even when no role is posted.
