The sovereign AI substrate for buyers who cannot use the cloud.
Mickai™ is the UK Sovereign Intelligence Operating System: a hardware-bound, fully offline AI substrate with a post-quantum signed audit ledger, defended by 104 filed UK patent applications. We are raising to bring it to regulated markets. Here is the case, the proof, and the way in.
Regulated buyers cannot ship data to a hyperscaler
Defence, government, finance and healthcare operate under a regulatory floor that a public-cloud AI API cannot clear. They need intelligence that runs on operator hardware, with an audit chain the operator cryptographically owns.
A sovereign, hardware-bound, audited AI operating system
Mickai runs entirely offline across 50 cooperative brains. Every action is signed at commit under FIPS 204 ML-DSA-65, hash-linked into an Open Audit Record, and replayable in a browser-resident verifier with a no-network invariant.
104 filed UK patents across the substrate
The portfolio spans 13 families and approximately 2,340 claims, filed at the UK Intellectual Property Office and owned by Mickai LTD. The architecture is the differentiator, and the architecture is protected.
Not a pitch. A system you can inspect.
The working audit verifier
The Open Audit Record standard, and a standalone verifier that replays any signed chain in the browser with no network access. Proof you can run, not a claim you have to trust.
