History

[edit]

In May 2025, Humain was launched by Mohammed bin Salman, Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia. It aims to position Saudi Arabia as a global leader in AI innovation and infrastructure. Its founding was announced during an investment forum in Riyadh.[2][3] That year, Humain secured partnerships with American technology companies Nvidia, AMD, and Qualcomm.[4]

Humain has stated plans to develop several gigawatts of capacity.[5] Humain's flagship model is ALLAM, an Arabic-first multimodal large language model. The ALLaM 34B version was reportedly trained on more than 500 billion Arabic tokens.[6] Consumer and enterprise products include Humain Chat, a free Arabic-first chat application for iOS, Android, and web powered by ALLaM.[6]
