SOV Model Family β Complete Documentation
Architecture Overview
SOV33 is a UK-sovereign AI substrate built by CSOAI Ltd (UK Companies House 16939677). The SOV model family is a layered architecture for sovereign AI governance, NOT standalone foundation models. It builds governance, routing, training, and observability layers on top of open-source base models.
