For investors.
Most of the useful AI being built in the next few years won't live inside a megamodel. It'll live next to private data. We're building the platform for it.
What we're building
A Resident is a small AI trained on a single dataset for a single job. You own it. You can version it, test it, and ship it where your data already lives — a laptop, a private cloud, an air-gapped lab.
Not a prompt. Not a wrapper. A computer.
Why now
Two things shifted in the last eighteen months. Training a small, specialist model has gotten roughly an order of magnitude cheaper. And the institutions sitting on the most valuable data — hospitals, law firms, regulated labs, defence — increasingly can't send it to a third-party API, even if they want to.
So the interesting work is moving to the edge: closer to the data, away from the giant general-purpose models. We think this is a category. We want to build it.
Where we are
We're at concept stage. The core architecture is in place. The first Residents are running in private.
The round
Pre-seed.
We're looking for investors who can back something early — people who've done it before, who can sit through a slow first year, and who say yes when most are still asking questions.
