About

Named after the network beneath the forest

Mycel is an AI company headquartered in Berlin. We design, build and run AI platforms, models and agent systems for research, the public sector and enterprise.

How we build

Four principles behind every platform, model and engagement.

Sovereign by design

Data stays in the jurisdiction it belongs to. Public-sector work runs on EEA hosting with zero-retention inference.

People decide

Agents do the volume. Every external action has a human sign-off and a full audit trail.

Open where it counts

We publish models, frameworks and tools in the open when it moves the field forward.

Responsible by construction

EU AI Act and GDPR requirements are designed in from the first line, not bolted on.

The largest living thing on Earth is a fungus. It spreads across nearly ten square kilometres of forest, and almost all of it is underground.
