LabAn AI research lab · six threads
We build our own models. And the silicon to run them.
Open-weight models compressed for real deployments, and a roadmap that takes them from software into reconfigurable chips.

What we research
Six threads, from expert pruning through to population genomics. Each has its own page with the detail and the numbers behind it.
- CompressionExpert pruningCutting experts out of large mixture-of-experts models until they fit the hardware people actually own.Shipped · open weightsRead the thread
- SpeechMultilingual speech recognitionDialect-aware recognition for languages where labelled audio is scarce and the incumbent systems are far larger than they need to be.Shipped · leaderboard-tierRead the thread
- EvaluationRefusal ablationRemoving refusal behaviour from open models and measuring the damage, so red-teamers and guardrail developers have something to test against.Shipped · research useRead the thread
- QuantizationQuantization & efficient servingBit-width work that turns large models into something a laptop or a single consumer GPU can hold.Shipped · open weightsRead the thread
- In progressDetection models & reconfigurable siliconCompact models that inspect every request, and the longer job of compiling them onto reconfigurable chips so inspection stops costing what it costs today.Actively researchingRead the thread
- GenomicsPopulation genomics for the GulfNo genomic foundation model has been built for Arab or Emirati populations. That absence is the gap, and it is the one we are working on.Actively researchingRead the thread
What we have shipped
Open weights on Hugging Face from day one. Model cards are readable on this site — you only leave to download.

Where it is going
One timeline, starting with what already exists. Compact models today, inline inspection next, reconfigurable silicon after that.
