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
Explicitly NOT an LLM lab — recorded because it is frequently listed among French AI champions. Zama is a fully homomorphic encryption company (first FHE unicorn) whose Concrete ML toolkit enables encrypted-data ML inference; its commercial product is a confidential blockchain protocol, not a model. Relevant to European AI only as privacy-preserving compute infrastructure.
