Project Mercury
Building Locai's pre-trained sovereign model series on UK sovereign cloud infrastructure.
The challenge
Building genuinely sovereign British models requires sovereign infrastructure, compute that sits under UK jurisdiction rather than on foreign-owned platforms exposed to overseas data-access laws.
The solution
Project Mercury is Locai's pre-trained foundation model series, trained from scratch on UK sovereign cloud infrastructure. Keeping training onshore ensures the resulting capability, and the data behind it, remains under UK control.
The outcome
A pathway to fully British, pre-trained sovereign models, complementing Locai's post-trained Jupiter series and demonstrating end-to-end UK AI capability from infrastructure to model.
