A library for classical scholarship, augmented with AI or au naturel.
Curate the best-in-class library of classical scholarship. We will start from ancient works in translation and advance to include everything about the ancient Greek & Roman world, from medieval commentaries to 19th-century research to modern insights. Target the Greek and Latin corpus spanning from Homer through medieval commentaries, as well as relevant scholarship.
Provide private LLM client sessions for research and scholarship. The debut model, Llama White Marble, augments research with classical sources for natural language research and contextual conversations with ancient wisdom.
Curated collection of primary sources, translations, commentaries, scholarship, and tertiary AI-enhanced tools exclusively available to syndicate members.
