Why Open-Source AI Matters
We believe AI should be transparent, accessible, and controlled by the people who use it. We started a collective that develops tools that put users first.
Privacy First
Local processing ensures your data never leaves your device.
Community Driven
Built by developers, researchers, and AI enthusiasts worldwide.
Open Innovation
Transparent development with full access to source code.
Global Impact
Democratising AI access for everyone, everywhere.
