Core42
Infrastructure service
Single-tenant private cloud for governments and enterprises running classified or otherwise secret workloads, with sovereignty guarantees Core42 operates itself.
Full-stack sovereign AI cloud platform unifying multi-accelerator compute (NVIDIA, AMD, Qualcomm, Cerebras, Microsoft) across 86K+ GPUs in sovereign data centers, AI-optimized storage, Kubernetes/SLURM orchestration, and Core42 Compass inference, for training, fine-tuning and production AI workloads.
Public cloud built on Azure but operated under UAE data-sovereignty and security controls, for public-sector and regulated workloads that cannot leave the country.
Tenstorrent
Infrastructure service
Hosted remote access to Tenstorrent accelerator instances of 1-128 Wormhole Tensix processors, reached through a browser or remote session via the TT-Console portal.
No counterpart
Core42 sells these in a stack layer with no product recorded for Tenstorrent yet — nothing on the other side to compare them against.
API service
Unified inference layer within Core42 Sovereign AI Cloud: one API for 50+ models across 12 providers (OpenAI, Anthropic, Meta, Mistral, xAI, DeepSeek and others), with sovereign in-country deployment, guardrails, fine-tuning services and a Playground for prompt testing.
