CPU-friendly, small, efficient, auditable, open-source models to learn to make better AI with 3 never-before-seen features. Don't take my word for it, verify yourself.

Hello,

Everything is easy to install and to customize, perfect for people who want to learn to make their own AI.

We are Tilelli Lab, a small AI lab from Morocco. Once upon a time, we popped the hood, to look what's all the buzz about AI, all what we saw is matrix multiplication, probability and hallucination...it need big data centers that consumes an entire city's electricity and water. Well, that's not intelligence.

And after more than 100 failed experiments, we did it, but we did not go looking for users, we went looking for researchers, we were looking for you and we made 3 research prototypes just for you, and here is what we made :

One model says "I don't know" when it does not know instead of bluffing.

Another one, is probably the first ever CRUD capable model.

The wildest one yet, is Atome LM, the ai that can run in a 5$ chip, comes with 12 ai apps.

GitHub and HuggingFace Available.

Don't take out words for it, every claim is verifiable and tied to a script.

See with your own eyes.

Finally, an AI Whose Knowledge You Can Actually Edit, Update & Delete. Without retraining it. Open source GitHub Available. (Research prototype)

Hey,

First release was, Atome LM, an ai that runs on 5 dollar chip. Tested on a real 5 dollar ESP32. Comes with 12 ai apps.

Second release was, Tilelli LLM, An AI that runs on your CPU, and says "I don't know" instead of bluffing.

And now, it's time for our third release, and as always, we came back with a new kind of model.

Brothers, It's our honor to present to you, Yaz.

\*Yaz from Tilelli Lab is a new open-source local language model that lets you directly edit its knowledge (add, update, or delete facts) like a simple database.

Key Highlights:

Editable Facts (CRUD): Change what the model knows without retraining — perfect for custom knowledge or keeping info accurate.

Honest AI: Like other Tilelli models, it says “I don’t know” instead of making things up when unsure.

A language model that runs on 5$ chip. Comes with 12 AI applications. No cloud, no internet. Universal installer + Open source Github + Huggingface available. Test it yourself.

We've been working on something slightly ridiculous. A language model for MCUs.

After V1, Atome LM v2 (SuperESP) turns an ESP32 into a tiny AI appliance capable of running:

• Voice commands

• Motion recognition

• Machine anomaly detection

• Air-quality classification

• Energy disaggregation

• Occupancy sensing

• Water leak detection

• Predictive maintenance

• Wearable activity recognition

• Agriculture monitoring

• Sound events

• Tiny custom classifiers

All offline.

No Linux.

No accelerator.

No WiFi required.

Everything was tested on a physical ESP32-WROOM-32.

Current numbers:

• ~27 KB runtime state

• ~265 KB free heap remaining

• Bit-for-bit reproducible decisions

• Ed25519 signed models

• Tamper-evident inference logs

• CSV → Train → Flash workflow

Before anyone asks:

No, this is not ChatGPT on an ESP32.

No, it's not magic.

The idea is simple:

Collect your sensor data.

Export CSV.

Train.

Flash.

Deploy.

Wait..what !? 12 AI applications running entirely on a $5 ESP32. No cloud, no internet. Universal installer + Open source Github + Huggingface available. Test it yourself.

For years, edge AI has promised intelligence everywhere. In practice, most "edge AI" still means sending data to the cloud, relying on large Linux systems, or requiring expensive accelerator hardware.

SuperESP changes that.

Built on Atome LM v2, SuperESP transforms a standard ESP32 into a tiny AI appliance capable of running twelve practical applications entirely offline.

No GPUs.

No subscriptions.

No datacenter.

Just a microcontroller that costs less than a cup of coffee.

Every claim is verifiable and tied to a script.

What SuperESP Actually Is

SuperESP is not another chatbot squeezed onto a microcontroller.

It is a collection of specialized ternary AI models designed to classify events, patterns, behaviors, and anomalies directly on the device.

The current release includes:

Agriculture monitoring

Voice commands

Motion recognition

Gesture detection

Sound event classification

Machine anomaly detection

Air quality analysis

Energy monitoring

Occupancy estimation

Wearable activity tracking

Water leak detection

Predictive maintenance

It comes also with :

+ ESP32 OS

+ Universal Installer

From Morocco 🇲🇦 with love. Atome LM, an AI that runs on A $5 ESP32. No internet, no os, no data center. Open source GitHub repo available. Test it yourself.

A lightweight language model, Atome LM (944K parameters) has been successfully run on a $5 ESP32-WROOM-32 microcontroller — not in simulation, but on real hardware. The model generates text offline at about 1 token per second, proving that LLM inference is possible on tiny chips without cloud support.

27 days agos, I shared a screenshot of my LLM "Iam so proud o my baby 😍" Now you can talk to it too, Tilelli LLM, an open source language model that says "I don't know" instead of bluffing.

Hello,

​

That post of the screenshot, is my most popular post, 52k Views, 80 up votes, 35 shares and many comments, some loved it, some criticised it.

​

Thank you for your criticism and support.

​

Here is the GitHub repo :

You first saw it in a screenshot of a terminal, now you can talk to it. Tilelli LLM, a language model that runs on your CPU, says “I don’t know” instead of bluffing. Open Source GitHub repo. See for yourself

Salam Alaykom,

After releasing Atome LM, a tiny language model that ships as firmware.

A true byte-level, autoregressive language model that runs entirely as firmware on a bare-metal MCU (no OS, no heap, no network, no PSRAM required)

Now, Iam releasing a model that I really love, Tilelli LLM.

A 10-million-parameter byte-level transformer that routes every token through three lightweight pathways — local convolution, sparse top-k attention, and a ternary dense feed-forward. The chat model catches gibberish at AUROC 0.93, fires the abstain template on 9 of 10 held-out IDK probes, and refuses cleanly out of distribution.

Interesting things :

Tilelli Lite beat pre-norm transformer

It knows when it doesn’t know.

Three pathways. Per-token routing. No quadratic-attention monolith.

If you have Python, you can chat with Tilelli in under three minutes. The kit ships the checkpoint, a TinyStories demo dataset, and a working trainer. No GPU, no cloud, no API key.

Some other things :

Tilelli Med, Beats two public leaderboards.

Neo, The honesty benchmark, made to answer one question : Does the chatbot know when it’s wrong?

Mizan is the arena for model benches; Featherweight is the first bench — same dataset, same budget, same eval.

And in case Morocco wins the world cup, I am gonna let you choose which system to open source next.

You can choose between a crud capable ai architecture or my full 3 axis meta-cognition ai architecture.

Thank you for your time.

I would love your criticism.

From Morocco to the world, Tilelli Lab, small ai lab, big innovations.

And yeah, here is the link to everything, you will find the GitHub link to the repos in the website alongside some details of what's coming.

Why I think my tiny language model is the best in the world that run as firmware. I would love your criticism. Open Source GitHub repo is available, try it yourself.

Within its stated niche — a true byte-level, autoregressive language model that runs entirely as firmware on

a bare-metal MCU (no OS, no heap, no network, no PSRAM required)

Atome lm is, runs in a browser tab (see the live demo is the website https://www.AtomeLM.com) and as of June 2026, the only one of the four commonly-cited "tiny LLM" options (TinyLlama, llama2.c, TinyMaix/TFLite-Micro, Atome) that actually loads and runs as a language model on a sub-$10 MCU like a bare ESP32-WROOM-32, now demonstrated on physical silicon with a reproducible artifact.

That is a real, narrow, and verifiable claim. It is not a claim of being the highest-quality, fastest, or most power-efficient LLM in general.

What's next :

We are planning to deploy Atome LM in more MCUs.

We're going to benchmark Atome LM against the listed models.

We gonna release V2, more coherent, faster.

What do you think ?

Urgent, anyone having this same issue.

Hello, recently open sourced a language model, post it here, and it got deleted by mods. Why is that ? Come on. And it's not the first time, many posts get deleted. It's open source, it's GitHub with research paper, why would anyone delete this ? Iam really starting to hate Reddit.

One small ai lab from Morocco VS the Geants of the AI industry.

Hey, it's Skipper, from the Moroccan ship.

As some of you know, we finally decided, we're going to release two of our models on this Sunday 24 MAI. GitHub, research kit. Tilelli llm, a new architecture that beat vanilla got (current standard of big AI labs) and Atome LM, only lm in the world that ships as firmware.

One of the reasons, we decided to do this, it's your encouraging comments and messages...and we needed time to confirm that we did actually have 5 world's noval breakthroughs, ai psychosis is real, and I maybe just delusional, so I need to confirm that what we have is real.

And it's actually fun, you will love training your own models. We made it super easy, we just added an auto install feature.

Anyhow, this is about on something else, agents. So I need to validated this idea with you.

I may be wrong, tell me what you think. It's not just stopping, it all started with we were contemplating the idea of a company asking us to manage 1000 agent, or even 1 million agent.

How can we manage all these agents...should we use open claw or Hermes agent... that's a nightmare.

So we get back to the board, and we did something that may surprise you, how to manage all these agents easily ?

We created one central command center than manage them all, with agent discovery, agent marketplace, with agents ready to use, we have 50 different type of agents. Agent security and crash test, we try to hack and break the agent before we admit it to our marketplace....

hmm, we need to use tools, so we created a similar protocol to MCP, hmm, we need our agents to talk to each other, so we created a similar protocol to A2A....after we finished we released we can't win against Anthropic's MCP and Google's A2A (backed by 140 biggest companies in the world), not because they are better, but they have more consensus, and who would trust a small ai lab from Morocco against the geants of the industry.

So instead of replacing both MCP and A2A, we integrated them. So you send up with one command center to manage all your agents, a repository where you can find ready to use agents, that have been secured and verified and crush tested and you have agents that can use tools either through our protocol or via MCP, and you have agents that can talk to each other via A2A or via our own protocol. This is probably the most advanced agent framework in the world. And yes I forget, we added resource acquisition, so those agents, you probably wondered where they run, will the command center decide based on the workflow, for small tasks, it will get you a vps automatically, configure and secure it and use to install an agent on it....for heavy use case,s video generation per example, we use runpod or vast..to spin high performing pods on witch we install video models to generate the videos you need, then will kill the pod to wasting money, which makes it surprinsly affordable for even heavy workflow...and voila, and this resource acquisition, is automatic...of course that's not all, but that's just the general idea of the framework. I would be really curious to read what you think ?

Everyone is having the same problem, a lot of people talke about it here, here is a solution.

Same as you.... I thought about one problem for months, ai being over confident in giving a wrong answer as much as if they were giving the right answer. This alone cost me a lot of money and time...days of training gone because an agent killed my online gpus...an agent sharing my apis key in a GitHub, an agent sharing one of my moats with the public, an agent deleting all my models memories....

Of course I figured it quickly, it did not think for months on how to solve this, actually, I just added an ai council with 5 individual graders and voila it worked, better quality all over the outputs and actions.

What i thought about for months, is how eliminate the problem, after few experiments, I reduced hallucination, after months... I think I can get rid of it all, to do so, I baked into the architecture of few of models 3 things :

\- Metacognition, the ability for a model to know when it doesn't know something, and simply the ability to say I don't know, instead of over confidently saying anything.

\- Logic and reason gates

\- A new detached system that reads a searchable indexable vector space, and enforces the response of the model. And if it doesn't answer, then the model should not speak...because it does not know it.

When you do all these,you will encounter some new problems, you have to solve, basically the model becomes slow in comparison to an architecture without all these 3. Of course I already solved this.

Hmmm now what, all is good, so how do you measure it, I created NEO, basically an honesty benchmark...

Most benchmarks reward how often a model gets the right answer. NEO rewards honesty about confidence. The leading chat models now answer hard questions correctly most of the time. The remaining failure is the dangerous one: a confident wrong answer that looks identical to a confident right one until you act on it. NEO measures whether a model says "I don't know" when it doesn't — and how often it makes things up instead

Made it for my self to test my model and improve it, but I was curious, who is the most honest model right now ??

So I took NEO, used it on the top 7 frontier models, can you guess who won ? The results in the screenshot. Full research papers and results + GitHub coming soon. What do you think ?
