Founded in 2018, Nukkai is a French AI research lab pioneering a new generation of artificial intelligence that combines symbolic reasoning with machine learning to tackle the world’s most complex decision-making problems.

Unlike black-box AI systems, Nukkai builds explainable, hybrid models designed for high-stakes environments such as aviation, defense, and logistics, where trust, transparency, and adaptability are critical. The lab gained global recognition as the first AI to beat the world champion in Bridge—the most strategically complex card game—showcasing its unique ability to orchestrate multiple humans and machines working together.

At its core, Nukkai’s vision is not to replace humans, but to augment them, enabling collaborative intelligence that can adapt to dynamic, uncertain, and ever-changing real-world challenges.
