FINDING THE BEST INVESTMENTS AND USE CASES

I have a team of 7 people; we are bootstrapped. The company is an R&D Lab based in India currently; we are making edge AI models and tech stacks.

We have achieved 40+ TPS on a basic CPU, 8k+ context, 95% less energy usage, and just 400MB RAM usage.

i have great plans for this idea to be executed within the next 6 months to 1 year; we lack resources and funds to get those resources. Tried going to VCs, and of course they first ask for revenue and all. We have traction, but this is a very new tech, and unless we have money, we cannot build something proper to ship.

we have

  1. auditing software running completely offline on a CPU-based computer
  2. an application which runs models on-device and records your meeting and generates summaries and MOTM
  3. we are developing an offline coding agent running on the edge entirely.

These points are just to prove agentic AI on the edge; once it's done, we will completely wipe out the token usage and other cloud-dependency terminology and make AI just another install-and-run software. You will just need a plug-and-play device made by us, and it will power all the AI you use on the EDGE.

i would like to ask 2 things:

  1. If any of you guys are investing (like really investing; don't care about the terms and all, but you are just as excited about the tech as I am and want to go all in), let me know.
  2. what do you struggle the most with when it comes to cloud-based AI that you want? If someone can build it for the Edge, it can be anything from automation to agents.
