SovereignOS · Roadmap
A sovereign operating system for European organisations.
Your institution should decide where its data goes and how AI is used. SovereignEU is developing SovereignOS to put those decisions in your hands.
Planned workstation operating system. Availability, supported devices and migration paths will be documented for each release.
What the alliance brings
One alliance, three roles inside your organisation.
SovereignEU is a European public and private alliance. It advances research, develops a planned sovereign operating environment, and helps your organisation assess and adopt it responsibly.
Open research & development
Sovereign AI advanced in the open, with European institutions and industry, so the foundations stay inspectable and shared.
ExploreSovereignOS & applications
A planned workstation operating system and a suite of organisational applications, designed around customer control.
ExploreProfessional services
A measured path from one bounded use case to a validated deployment: assess, define, deploy, then verify and transfer.

Working inside SovereignOS.
Pick an example task. SovereignOS keeps the work inside your data boundary, routes it to an approved local model, drafts with citations, and waits for a person before anything is shared.

How the platform is organised
Eighteen roadmap capabilities, four clear responsibilities.
Everything in SovereignOS belongs to one of four responsibilities, so an official always knows what a capability is for, and an evaluator knows where it sits.
Applications
The organisational apps people use every day, documents, knowledge, service desk, projects and more.
ExploreIntelligence
Document AI, assistants and fine-tuned models, governed, cited, and kept on approved routes.
ExploreFoundation
The AI native database, model runtime and identity layer the whole system stands on.
ExploreTrust
Guardrails, AI defense and post quantum cryptography, the controls that make the rest safe to use.

Solutions by function
It meets each part of the organisation where it works.
The same governed core, shaped to the daily reality of programme teams, operations, IT and people functions.
Programme delivery
Keep delivery, decisions and evidence in one place, briefs drafted from the record, not from memory.
Operations & administration
The everyday apps and documents, with the boundary and the audit trail built in.
IT & service management
Requests, changes and service records, governed, traceable, and yours to run.
HR & people
Sensitive people processes handled inside your control, with human approval where it matters.
Governed by design
European governance built into the plan.
SovereignOS is designed around four obligations European officials already answer to.
Data protection
Designed to support GDPR obligations with a defined data boundary, lawful basis and retention policy for each deployment.
AI lifecycle governance
Plan how AI will be used, assess its risks and keep a record of changes.
Human oversight
A person can be required to approve sharing or consequential actions. The gate is part of the planned design and can be defined for the deployment.
Technical evidence
A reviewable activity record gives your organisation evidence to assess its obligations.
What “sovereign” actually means here
Six dimensions you can verify, not a slogan.
We hold ourselves to a definition an evaluator can check, across every dimension of control.
Data
Designed to let your organisation choose where data is processed and how approved models may use it.
Operational
You can run, pause and audit the system with operator access defined by your organisation.
Technology
Planned open source releases intended for inspection, adaptation and an orderly exit under their published licences.
Jurisdiction
Designed for deployments where jurisdiction, governance and access routes are reviewed and documented.
Knowledge
Your organisation can retain institutional memory under its own policy, with export and access rules defined up front.
Exit
A credible way out: your data and models are portable, so sovereignty is real, not rhetorical.
A measured path
Start with one bounded use case. Prove it. Then widen.
No attempt to transform everything at once. We begin where the value and the risk are both legible, and we transfer control to your team at the end.

Common questions
The questions we hear first.
Straight answers for nontechnical leaders, why a new OS, who builds it, your data, cost, and how to start.

Bring one bounded use case. We’ll show you the governed path to a validated deployment.
Public-sector teams across the union are planning for sovereign AI. A first deployment starts with a single, well-chosen decision.
