Company profile

The Open Machine company profile

We are building the first truly local edge AI platform delivering the power of large language models (LLMs) without relying on GPUs, cloud APIs, or centralized infrastructure. Our technology enables billion-parameter models to run on CPUs, making AI affordable, private, and deployable anywhere, from phones and laptops to industrial devices. Unlike traditional AI companies focused on scale and compute, we are focused on speed, size, sovereignty, and control. Our platform democratizes AI at the infrastructure level, allowing enterprises, developers, and even consumers to run powerful models locally with zero data leakage and minimal hardware requirements. Think of it as Google-level performance with Raspberry Pi-level accessibility. We’ve already secured early investment and proven our approach with working demos of large-scale training and inference on CPU-only systems. We’re not chasing the hype, we’re solving the real problems that make AI usable, affordable, and private for everyone. Building first ever multimodal AI with single brain unified tokenizer + single-decoder runtime; concurrency and grounding are architectural, not a feature flag.
