The Weave Router, an intelligent model router for coding agents (e.g., Claude Code, Codex, Cursor) that dynamically selects the optimal LLM for inference requests.
Intelligently sends requests to the best model to serve them, reducing AI inference costs ('saved 40% on tokens') without sacrificing quality or velocity. It acts as an Anthropic/OpenAI endpoint for coding agents.
The Weave Router addresses a critical enterprise challenge: managing escalating LLM inference costs while maintaining performance for AI coding agents. By intelligently routing requests to cheaper, faster models for routine tasks and frontier models for complex ones, it delivers a tangible 40% co...

An experimental file compression method using an overfitted transformer and arithmetic coding to memorize and compress individual files.
A novel approach to file compression that achieves high ratios (e.g., 100MB CSV to 7MB) by training a small transformer to 'memorize a single file and predict the next byte.'
This experiment demonstrates a specialized, high-ratio file compression technique with significant B2B potential, despite its current performance limitations. The ability to compress a 100MB CSV to 7MB is compelling for industries dealing with large, repetitive datasets, such as financial logs, s...

An AI model and harness for penetration testing and security scanning, post-trained on CTF contests.
A specialized AI-powered cybersecurity tool for SMEs and mid-market companies, offering un-guard-railed pen-testing capabilities, unlike general-purpose LLMs or enterprise-gated solutions. It provides concrete, verifiable vulnerability findings through a CLI with local code scanning and sandboxed live system exploitation.
This product directly addresses a critical market gap: accessible, un-guard-railed AI-driven penetration testing for SMEs and mid-market. Current LLMs are either restricted or too generalized, leaving these segments vulnerable. By post-training on CTF data, the solution offers practical, exploit-...
