ai& Overview
ai& is a Japan-built sovereign AI stack for running frontier models and deploying apps, agents, and products — faster and cheaper than OpenAI or Anthropic with zero cross-border data egress.
- ai& Inference: Run frontier models through a single API on Japan-hosted GPU infrastructure — cheaper, faster, and data-resident with no infra to manage.
- ai& Build: Deploy apps, agents, APIs, or e-commerce stores in seconds with secure-by-default scaling, zero-config TLS, and a global edge.
- Full AI Loop: Inference plus compute in one environment powers true 1-click AI deployment — model and application live together.
- Japan Latency & Sovereignty: Sub-50ms Japan latency, 100% Japan-hosted data residency, and IP\/databases that stay in Japan.
- Cost Efficiency: Claims up to ~90% potential savings versus major global providers, with a simple one-URL change to switch.
- Post-Training: Post-trains leading open models for domain knowledge, reasoning, speed, and language — frontier performance tuned to real work.
- Owned Infrastructure: Operates its own foundation with 100MW+ high-performance compute capacity in development for sovereign global-scale AI.
- Free Model Access:
