Aleph Alpha

Aleph Alpha was founded in 2019 in Heidelberg, Germany, by Jonas Andrulis and Samuel Weinbach to build large language models designed for a sovereign Europe, giving regulated organizations an alternative to relying solely on foreign AI providers for sensitive workloads.

The company develops specialized, domain-tuned language models that run on European infrastructure under EU data-protection rules, connecting domain expertise with internal enterprise workflows. Clients span regulated industries and public institutions, including Deutsche Bank, Bosch, SAP, Infineon and German federal agencies.
