Brazilian Portuguese AI research group

Instituto IA/LNCC is a Brazilian AI and language-technology research group whose public GitHub work includes Manaca 1B Base, an open Brazilian-Portuguese language model. The public organization profile identifies the group as Instituto de IA do LNCC and links to the institute website. OpenTools records it as the parent organization for Manaca 1B Base so the model page has a traceable research-group dependency. The current public software footprint is small, but it is directly relevant to builders evaluating Portuguese-language AI. The Manaca repository documents a reproducible language-model project, links to a Hugging Face model card, and describes the model as open and focused on Portuguese from Brazil. Builders should treat this profile as a compact dependency page rather than a broad company profile. The safest source-backed facts are the GitHub organization URL, the linked institute website, the Brazil location, and the model repository relationship.
