# QAI > QAI is the data and cloud layer under agentic AI products — one Postgres carrying records, documents, spatial indexes and vector columns, an agent runtime with retrieval and conversation memory, and per-product credit metering. It is built and operated by QAI Cloud, whose research arm is QAI Lab, and four QAI products run on it today. ## Platform The layer is not sold as a standalone product today — it is the substrate under QAI's own products. - [The QAI platform](https://qai.io/platform): The data and cloud layer under agentic AI products, in four named layers. - [Data](https://qai.io/platform#data): Storage was never the problem. Disagreement is. An agent's knowledge is usually spread across systems that quietly disagree: what it retrieves sits in one, what the business considers true sits in another, what it remembers about a customer sits in a third, and who is allowed to see any of it sits in a fourth. - [Agentic AI](https://qai.io/platform#agentic-ai): You cannot review an agent's code and know what it will do. Same code, same permissions, a different prompt — and it takes a different action. - [Cloud](https://qai.io/platform#cloud): A budget an agent cannot exceed has to live below the agent, not inside its prompt. You are not shipping an app any more. - [Infra](https://qai.io/platform#infra): Defaults are chosen at the bottom, or they are not chosen at all. Execution that is untrusted until proven otherwise. ## Products - [QAI Finance](https://qai.io/finance): AI-native research boards over public-market fundamentals — argued bull/base/bear theses with explicit assumptions, company intelligence, funds, and the AI value chain. Analyst work product. - [QAI Earth](https://qai.io/earth): Geospatial intelligence for climate and geoscience. Natural-language questions over real-time Earth observation data on interactive maps. - [QAI Insights](https://qai.io/insights): Market radars over the sectors AI is reshaping — who is building what, where the market is already crowded, and where the white space is. Every row carries its sourced traction and a citation. - [QAI Health](https://qai.io/health): Open medical evidence and public health data — FDA drug labels and adverse-event reports, cited answers from PubMed, publication trends, population outcomes, and New Zealand's open health datasets. Every figure links to the source record. Not medical advice. - [QVC (QAI Ventures)](https://qai.io/vc): AI-native, creator-led venture program. Rolling pitch intake; no deadline to submit. - [QAI Apps](https://qai.io/apps): The catalog of vertical AI products QAI Lab builds on the QAI platform. ## Research & data - [Frontier AI Research](https://qai.io/research): Agentic systems, reasoning and planning, multimodal learning, AI safety, and the harnesses that make agents reliable. - [LLM leaderboard](https://qai.io/rankings): Benchmark and model rankings. - [LLM API leaderboard](https://qai.io/rankings/llm-apis): Price, latency and throughput across LLM API providers. - [The AI stack, layer by layer](https://qai.io/insights/ai-stack): The AI economy mapped by layer — model labs, AI-native apps, custom silicon, compute infrastructure and power. - [The AI value chain, as a network](https://qai.io/insights/ai-stack/value-chain): Who supplies whom across the AI stack — chokepoints, flows, and where the margin pool concentrates. - [AI startups across the stack](https://qai.io/finance/companies/startups): Private companies mapped across the AI stack, each with a web-grounded dossier. - [Pre-IPO AI companies to watch](https://qai.io/finance/companies/pre-ipo): Private names heading for the public market. ## Documentation - [QAI Earth documentation](https://qai.io/docs/geo): Features, system data layers, trend charts, platform architecture. - [QAI Finance documentation](https://qai.io/docs/finance): Research boards, company intelligence pages, report decks. - [QVC documentation](https://qai.io/docs/vc): How the venture program works. - [Pricing, plans & credits](https://qai.io/docs/pricing): Plans, features, credit allocations, billing. - [Full documentation (llms-full.txt)](https://qai.io/llms-full.txt): Expanded documentation in a single file. ## Company - Legal name: QAI Cloud.
