Empowering communities through AI: preserving culture, shaping futures

"The true value of intangible cultural heritage lies not in its tangible manifestations, but in the wealth of knowledge and skills passed down through generations."

Sceatta, meaning "wealth" in Anglo-Saxon, is a white-label AI model transforming how communities engage with and preserve their cultural heritage. Developed in collaboration with King’s College London, this innovative platform fine-tunes AI with community-specific data, creating applications in education, urban planning, and cultural storytelling.

Unlike generic models, Sceatta is rooted in local engagement, ensuring the technology reflects the unique needs and histories of communities. By hosting the model on local GPU clusters, Sceatta upholds strict data sovereignty and privacy standards while offering policymakers, educators, and businesses ethically sourced, meaningful insights. Scalable and adaptable, Sceatta sets a new standard for socially responsible AI.

“Sceatta uniquely engages communities to gather diverse, inclusive data, ensuring authentic representation of local identity.”
