He serves as a Cyber Warfare Officer in the U.S. Army and has a background in machine learning, data science, and LLM architecture. He is currently focused on building AI infrastructure that is secure, efficient, and sustainable.
This update brings a fully redesigned website, Veritate AI, free threat intelligence feeds, server snapshots and restores, and billing that never re-prices a day you have already used. Here is everything new.
A redesigned Carpathian
We rebuilt the website from the ground up, with a new look across the pages you use most and clearer navigation between them. Pages load faster and read better on phones and tablets, and sign in and account creation share a consistent layout.
Policy and agreement pages show the version and effective date, so you always know which revision you agreed to.
Publications and documentation are easier to search, filter, and browse.
The pricing page now shows current rates from the platform itself, including network plans and per-model AI pricing, so what you read is what you are charged.
Common questions and answers were added to the cloud, pricing, coverage, data center, and AI pages.
The page you land on at our API address was redesigned and now shows the status of each region.
There are a few new easter eggs hidden around the site. Have a look around.
Bug Fix: legal pages could show different effective dates for the same agreement depending on which page you opened. Every page now reads the same date.
Veritate AI
We introduced Veritate AI, our research tool for seeing into the brain of a live Large Language Model though a set of pages for exploring our efficient on-device AI. Start at the overview to see how it works, then go straight into the tools.
Chat with a Veritate AI models in your browser and watch how it reasons, token by token, next to the conversation.
A demo page shows what the model captures as it generates, so you can see the interpretability data for yourself.
A single stats page brings the numbers behind Veritate together in one place.
Veritate pages now fit properly on phones, and the chat shows when the model is reading ahead of what you are typing.
Free threat intelligence feeds
A new threat intelligence page publishes free hourly feeds of the scanner addresses we block and the paths they probe, in formats that load straight into common firewalls including Palo Alto, Cloudflare, FortiGate, AWS WAF, nftables, MikroTik, and nginx.
More from Carpathian AI
You can download the documents you have added to an AI assistant, both the original file and the plain-text version.
AI instance and proxy cards are more compact, with view, rotate, and delete actions on each card.
Instance and proxy detail pages show a Connection panel with the exact URL and header to connect Carpathian AI to any app or coding tool.
Carpathian AI works with more tools out of the box, including Xcode, by accepting the standard x-api-key header.
Mar 30, 2026
The free public chat answers questions about Carpathian itself, covering what it offers, plans, and how to get started, and it now answers them more accurately.
Bug Fix: Carpathian AI failed to respond when connected through some external coding tools. Requests now work regardless of how the tool formats its messages.
Bug Fix: members with view-only access were shown controls on the AI and Quasar pages that their permissions did not allow. The controls now match what you can do.
Bug Fix: deleting an assistant agent that the platform refused closed the editor without a word and left the agent in place. The reason is now shown and the editor stays open.
Billing
A price change now applies from your next billing cycle, so a new rate never re-prices days you have already used and your month-to-date total no longer moves under you.
Spend caps count object storage transfer, so the cap covers everything the invoice does.
If a payment fails, you get a countdown of warnings with time to pay before anything is suspended.
Bug Fix: cancelling a Quasar server before its commitment ended charged one month too many. The early termination fee now matches the months left on the term.
Software development projects
Software development clients can now request work and follow each project through delivery from the dashboard.
Publications and Email
Subscribe to Carpathian publications and get an email whenever we post something new. Choose the topics you want, confirm your email, and you are set.
Veritate was added as a publication topic, covering our efficient on-device AI work.
Signed-in users pick exactly which publication topics they receive under Settings, Notifications, where each topic shows what it sends and whether you are subscribed.
An Announcements preference controls whether you receive platform announcements.
Every email carries a one-click unsubscribe link in the footer. Required account and security messages, and your server provisioning email, always come through.
When you log in, a reminder on your dashboard lets you choose which email updates you receive.
Bug Fix: older links to an article now take you to its current page instead of a missing-page error.
Your account
Deleting your account starts a 30-day countdown instead of removing it right away. We email you the date it will be deleted along with a summary of your charges, and you can cancel any time before then from Settings, Account. Anything still running keeps running and keeps being billed until the account is deleted, and the email spells out your current balance and a projected final bill.
Creating an account now asks which products you want rather than an account type, and your organization is set up with those products from the start. The pages separate the services and customize your dashboard around what you pick.
If your account is ever restricted and we need you to correct your profile details, the on-screen notice includes that step with a direct link. Saving your profile marks it complete.
Bug Fix: retrying a sign in with an emailed verification code while the code was still valid returned an error instead of accepting it.
Badges, leaderboard, and referrals
Badges now have point values, and a leaderboard shows how your total stacks up against everyone else on Carpathian. You only ever see your own placement, never anyone else's.
New badges for everyday milestones: turning on two-step verification, adding an SSH key, inviting a teammate, setting up your first network rule, paying your first invoice, and reaching your one-month and one-year anniversaries.
Seasonal holiday badges are awarded just for using the platform on days like New Year's Day, Pi Day, Star Wars Day, and Independence Day.
The referrals page brings your leaderboard placement, referral count, and badge progress together in one place, with a quick summary available as a dashboard widget.
Dashboard improvements
Search for any service from the bar at the top of the dashboard, and results show what each one is for.
On phones, the menu pulls out with a swipe from the left edge.
The dashboard and notifications pages were redesigned with clearer headings and more room to read.
Notifications are one filterable list you can search, with an Active and an Acknowledged tab.
Bug Fix: failed deployments, billing notices, and security alerts were all being labelled as policy violations. Each now shows its correct type, and urgency is consistent, so minor notices no longer appear as serious problems.
Bug Fix: Acknowledge and Delete now appear only on the notices you are allowed to dismiss, rather than failing when you press them on an organization-wide alert.
Spark Servers and networking
The console shows its progress while it connects, and tells you if it cannot get through instead of sitting on a blank screen. Typing is held until the session is ready, so early keystrokes can no longer break the connection.
When provisioning a server, you can create a new network and choose its bandwidth plan right from the network step, instead of setting it up on the Networking page first.
Site monitoring alerts are simpler to set up. Choose when you want to be alerted, on down, recovered, or degraded, and send those alerts to more than one address.
Spark Servers now have a Recovery tab. Take a snapshot before a change you are unsure about and roll back in seconds, or restore a server from one of its nightly backups when you need to go further back.
Bug Fix: starting a server that was already running no longer puts it into an error state and locks the power controls.
Other fixes
The team page showed a seat allowance that does not exist, and it could switch off the invite form. Invitations are no longer limited by seats.
Verifying a second domain within two minutes of another could leave the first one stuck and report a timeout against the wrong domain.
Two object storage uploads arriving together could push a bucket past its quota, and an upload refused for a name that already existed could leave its file behind.
Switching regions no longer signs you out or briefly hides your organization. Your session carries over, so you stay signed in and keep your workspace.
"Remember this device" during two-step verification now sticks. Trusted devices keep working through routine browser updates and network changes.
A sponsorship code submitted twice at the same moment could ship two items. A code now redeems once.
Security
We strengthened the platform's automatic protection against malicious login and access attempts, so hostile traffic is detected and blocked faster across the platform, and those datasets are available to you under threat intelligence for use in your own projects. We also applied a broad round of hardening across sign-in, account protection, SSH access, and network controls. Nothing changes about how you use the platform, and there is no action needed on your part.
