Building AI infrastructure in Nepal
Cloud Future Automation Research Matrix Pvt Ltd (CloudFRM.ai) is building GPU compute in Nepal, planned on the country’s hydropower-rich grid, with the models and applications that run on it. Nothing is in service yet: the platform is on a waitlist.
Why CloudFRM.ai
CloudFRM.ai is building the stack AI runs on, starting from power: compute, then the models served on it, then the applications and original work made with them.
Every capability on this site carries its status, and nothing is described as running until it runs.
What we are building
Each layer, and where it stands today.
Compute
Status: WaitlistGPU capacity, planned on NVIDIA HGX B300. Phase 1 hardware is on order, and nothing is in service.
Models
Status: WaitlistOpen models, to be served through the platform, each shown as usable only once it is.
Applications
Bhasa
Status: In progressNepali-language AI. Its first application, a voice assistant that answers banking questions in Nepali, is in speech-to-text testing.
Applications
Voice
Status: In progressVoices for AI, starting with a studio for recording speech data.
Original work
Fable
Status: PlannedAn original anime universe. It stays dark until its first chapter is ready.
Why AI infrastructure
Models, agents and search all run on GPU compute. An organisation that has to keep its data in its own country needs that compute there too.
Infrastructure comes first because everything else is built on it.
Why Nepal
The Himalayas feed Nepal’s rivers, and the rivers generate almost all of its electricity: the IEA records Nepal’s grid as almost entirely hydropower. CloudFRM.ai plans to turn that energy into compute in Nepal and offer it to the world.
Compute is planned to draw on the national grid, and its energy use will be published once the hardware is in service and metered.
The national transmission backbone is being strengthened, including by the U.S. Millennium Challenge Corporation’s 400kV programme. CloudFRM.ai is not a party to that programme.
Where we are going
The order is set by what each step depends on. A date is published only once it is certain.
- Phase 1 compute in service in Nepal.
- The platform opening from its waitlist, starting with inference and the model catalogue.
- Agents, retrieval, and private and sovereign deployments on that platform.
- Products built on it, starting with Bhasa.
We are building for developers, startups, researchers, enterprises and public institutions, in Nepal and abroad. There are no customers yet: the platform is pre-launch.
