Evidence boundaries
Organisation listings identify a reviewed canonical record. Model listings show an association in the source register; they do not by themselves establish model creation, current API availability, hosting location or infrastructure ownership.
Profile note
Czechia's compute backbone for AI: hosts Karolina (used to train Czech LLMs) and coordinates the Czech AI Factory while also being a member of the LUMI AI Factory. Provider of compute and AI services, not a model owner.
