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

The Flemish academic side of Dutch-language LLM work. Tweety-7b-dutch is an Apache-2.0 Dutch foundation model funded by KU Leuven BOF, VSC and the Flanders AI programme — notable because it is permissively licensed where GPT-NL's weights are under a controlled licence. Ghent's LT3 group (Véronique Hoste) has proposed a comprehensive Flemish benchmark dataset through the Flanders AI programme, covering regional written and spoken variation — a benchmark gap that matters because Flemish Dutch is underrepresented in Netherlands-built models.
