Aleph Alpha

European foundation model developer

Aleph Alpha is one of a handful of European companies that pre-train their own foundation models. Its customers work in finance, manufacturing and public administration, and they need models that handle German well, comply with European regulation and behave dependably where mistakes are costly. That work runs on a large training cluster of thousands of NVIDIA Blackwell GPUs. The organisation is flat, with teams and individuals trusted to own their results, quick decisions, and engineers who tackle hard technical problems together through pair or mob programming.
