Mangitas

ISSAI’s Inference Server

Introducing Mangitas: Infrastructure for AI systems

Institute of Smart Systems and Artificial Intelligence (ISSAI) at Nazarbayev University has developed the Mangitas series. It is a comprehensive, secure AI solution designed to operate entirely within air-gapped or government-certified environments. Working within resource constraints while leveraging strong internal expertise, the Mangitas Inference Server was assembled from commercial-off-the-shelf components in order to deploy AI models such as Oylan, Mangisoz, Beynele, and Tilsync , it now powers these models in production.

Mangitas is more than just a high-performance server, it is a key to unlocking AI’s potential without compromising on security. Its core innovation lies in packaging large-scale, complex AI models into a compact, reliable, and secure hardware form.

The Security Dilemma of Modern AI

The Mangitas series by ISSAI is a custom-built, secure AI inference server engineered for government and enterprise sectors where data sovereignty and cybersecurity are non-negotiable. The security dilemma of modern AI lies in the fact that, while artificial intelligence has become essential for digital transformation, it simultaneously presents a critical challenge for public institutions and enterprises operating in sensitive sectors. The demand for advanced AI capabilities often collides with the absolute requirement for data security and national sovereignty. At the same time, cloud-based deployment is frequently prohibited due to the risks associated with sensitive data exposure, national security concerns, and strict regulatory compliance.

Product Models

ISSAI offers two distinct models configured for different operational needs. Both are built on the same foundation of security and performance.

Mangitas 01: Dedicated AI for Critical Tasks

The Mangitas 01 is configured for organizations that require a powerful, dedicated solution for a single, mission-critical AI function. It provides a focused and highly optimized environment for specialized applications.

Best For: Secure, single-purpose AI operations.

Supported Model: Mangisoz, our powerful speech and translation suite for real-time transcription and translation between Kazakh, Russian, English, Turkish, and Chinese.

Core Use Case: Performing secure, real-time, and local language processing tasks without exposing sensitive data to the internet.

Mangitas 02: The Complete AI Ecosystem

The Mangitas 02 is a versatile AI powerhouse, configured to run the full suite of ISSAI’s advanced AI models simultaneously. It is the ideal solution for organizations aiming to establish a comprehensive, multi-purpose AI hub.

Best For: A full-spectrum, multi-purpose AI hub.

Supported Models:

  • Mangisoz: Speech & Translation Suite
  • Oylan: Multimodal AI (Text, Image, Audio)
  • Beynele: AI Image Generator with Kazakh Cultural Context
  • TilSync: Real-Time AI-Powered Subtitle Service

Core Use Case: Deploying a complete, sovereign AI ecosystem for diverse and complex tasks, from data analysis to content creation.

Core Features
