Headquarters evidence
No qualifying headquarters passage was promoted.
No qualifying headquarters wording captured; presence in Amsterdam complicates exact HQ determination.
Evidence boundaries
Organisation listings identify a reviewed canonical record. Headquarters is independent of incorporation, registered offices, ownership, hosting and runtime. 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
Zurich medical AI lab that releases genuinely open (MIT) pathology foundation models — Midnight-12k matches or beats Virchow2 and UNI-2 while training on orders of magnitude less data — and maintains eva, the open evaluation framework the whole field now benchmarks against. Directly comparable to Berlin's Aignostics but far more open. No pricing; open weights.
