About Prem AI

Prem AI is a Swiss artificial intelligence company focused on building sovereign, private, and verifiable AI infrastructure for enterprises and regulated industries. Founded in 2023 by Simone Giacomelli, the company develops software and infrastructure that enables organizations to deploy, fine-tune, and operate AI models while retaining full control over their data, computing environment, and intellectual property. The company positions itself as an alternative to cloud-based AI services that require organizations to send sensitive information to third-party providers.

Prem’s platform allows enterprises to train, customize, and deploy open-source and proprietary AI models across on-premises environments, private clouds, and virtual private cloud (VPC) deployments. Its technology supports model fine-tuning, document analysis, retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), AI agents, and enterprise workflow automation, with a strong emphasis on privacy, compliance, and data sovereignty.

A central element of the company’s strategy is sovereign AI, enabling organizations to maintain ownership of their models and data while avoiding vendor lock-in. Prem has developed technologies for confidential computing, encrypted inference, and verifiable AI operations, allowing enterprises to run AI workloads within secure execution environments and generate auditable records of system activity. Its solutions target industries with stringent security and compliance requirements, including healthcare, financial services, government, defense, and legal services.

Beyond enterprise software, Prem operates as an applied AI research company, developing proprietary models and infrastructure technologies focused on privacy-preserving AI. The company combines research in model optimization, reasoning systems, and AI security with commercial products designed to help organizations adopt generative AI while maintaining control over sensitive information and regulatory obligations.
