About Pluralis Research
Pluralis Research develops Protocol Learning, which enables foundation models to be trained and served across globally distributed participants without requiring a single participant to hold the complete model. Its work covers low-bandwidth model parallelism, asynchronous distributed optimization, fault-tolerant training, privacy-preserving unextractable models, and collective ownership. The organization operates Agora and Node0 training systems, publishes research, provides participation documentation, and releases open-source software for distributed training and reinforcement-learning workflows.
