Manuel Herranz founded the company in Valencia in 2000 as B.I. Europa the European subsidiary of B.I. Corporation Japan. The company began with multilingual language services and has evolved into a provider of machine translation. It became Pangeanic in 2005, and since then, it has gained experience in collecting training data and in AI training through its national and European Research and Development. It won several European projects within the Connecting Europe Facility (CEF) program for language technology, AI training data collection, machine translation, and sovereign AI systems. It progressively moved to large-scale language data, European research infrastructure, and artificial intelligence.
That progression gave Pangeanic an unusually long institutional memory in a field where technologies change quickly. Corpora became training data. Machine translation evaluation evolved into model evaluation. Human linguistic review developed into structured human feedback, alignment, and AI quality assurance.
Today, our main commercial focus is the data and human expertise layer behind AI systems: sourcing, licensing, collection, preparation, annotation, expert review, evaluation, alignment and governance across text, speech, audio, image, video and multilingual content.
The Pangeanic brand was established during the 2000s. Visit this archived evidence to see B.I. Europa online by 2004 and Pangeanic operating at pangeanic.com by 2007!!
