About ZorQelis AI
An AI research company in New Delhi, India, founded on 24 August 2026 by Ved Saini. It builds agentic models that reason deeply, and the SoreQen series is where that research ships.
What we are
ZorQelis AI is a research company that ships. The models are published with open weights, the data they were trained on is published too, and so is the record of what went wrong while making them: three things that are usually kept, in that order, and each of them is here because a claim nobody can check is not worth making.
The company is young (founded on 24 August 2026), and it is more useful to say so than to imply otherwise. The S1 line was trained and published in August 2026; the dates are checkable in the repositories. What exists today is three small open-weight models, two products built on them, and a training pipeline that has been through enough failures to have guards on it.
It is built in India, for a market where most assistants read a Hinglish question as a badly-written English one. That is not the whole ambition, but it is a real capability and very few models have it.

When that changes the openings will be listed on this page. Until then, if you have built something in this area that you think we should see (a model, a dataset, an evaluation, a tool), write to hello@zorqelisai.com and say what it is. Work first, letter second.
