Perciqa

Build AI you own.

Perciqa is a Canadian AI company building enterprise models and tools that organisations can deploy, audit, and fully control โ€” on their own infrastructure, on their own terms. Founded in Toronto in 2023. ๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ฆ

Why we build in the open

AI shouldn't require handing your data to someone else's infrastructure and hoping for the best. Every model, dataset, and tool we release is designed so you can run it on hardware you control, in a jurisdiction you trust, under a license that doesn't come with strings.

Open weights. Sovereign deployment. Canadian-built.

We believe the future of enterprise AI is owned, not rented โ€” and that starts with releasing everything needed for organisations, governments, and developers to stand up capable AI systems without dependency on foreign cloud APIs.

What we build

๐ŸŒŒ Aurora โ€” Open-Weight Code Intelligence

Aurora is our family of code-specialised LLMs, fine-tuned for developers who need models they can deploy, inspect, and fully own.

ModelArchitectureParamsActiveBaseLicense
Aurora-Code-1 Sparse MoE 35B 3B Qwen3.6-35B-A3B Apache 2.0
Aurora-Code-Mini-1 Dense 12B 12B Gemma 4 12B Apache 2.0

What Aurora does:

Aurora models are trained on curated, difficulty-stratified instruction data across seven task categories with full generation provenance (latency, temperature, retries, timestamps). Every training record is auditable.

Northern Lights for your codebase.

๐Ÿ”ญ Argus โ€” Agent Reliability Engine

Argus is our open-source (MIT) agent observability SDK โ€” trajectory tracing, inference FinOps, and eval-in-production for LLM-powered agents.

import argus

argus.init(agent_name="my-agent")
# That's it. Every LLM call is now traced.

๐Ÿง  Cortex โ€” Decentralised Agent Memory (Early Access)

Perciqa Cortex is a decentralised memory fabric for the agent economy โ€” a network of sovereign nodes where AI agents share signed, scope-controlled memory across organisational trust boundaries.

๐Ÿ“ก Perciqa Platform โ€” Full-Stack AI Observability

The enterprise platform tying it all together: distributed tracing, explainability layer (attribution scores and reasoning chains), and continuous evaluation for LLMs, RAG pipelines, and AI agents.

Sovereign AI ๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ฆ

We're building from Canada because we believe AI sovereignty matters โ€” for nations, for enterprises, and for individuals.

What that means in practice:

AI that works isn't enough anymore. It has to be AI you can trust, explain, and own.

Our values

Open by default

Core infrastructure is open-source and open-weight. We earn trust through transparency, not terms of service.

Engineers first

Built by a technical team for technical teams. We ship tools we'd want to use ourselves.

Sovereignty matters

Enterprises have an unalienable right to run AI on their own terms, their own hardware, in their own jurisdictions.

Trust is earned by data

No "the AI says so." We provide ground-truth evidence, confidence maps, and full reasoning traces.
