- How it is organized
- Sakana AI K.K., whose corporate page gives its headquarters as Azabudai Hills Mori JP Tower 22F, Minato-ku, Tokyo, was founded in July 2023 by David Ha, Ren Ito, and Llion Jones and describes itself as a Tokyo-based frontier R&D company. The API platform trades as Sakana AI Co., Ltd. in its terms of service and the site footer reads Sakana AI 株式会社, so the Japanese and English entity strings name the same company rather than separate labs; the catalog keeps both strings because the inference-service record names its operator Sakana AI Co., Ltd. and the model record names its developer Sakana AI. It develops and serves the Sakana Namazu line itself and the Fugu orchestration tiers, and it publishes the Darwin Gödel Machine and ShinkaEvolve systems — the DGM code from the first author's personal account, which is the location Sakana's own page links as the released code. It publishes no frontier-safety, responsible-scaling, or preparedness framework on its own pages: the obvious paths return not-found and it publishes instead a usage policy, a defense policy, and a research safety section on the DGM page, so the field is omitted rather than filled with a usage policy.
