EMPERO/05 — ABOUTOPEN WEIGHTS · APACHE 2.02 PEOPLE
Small lab,
open by default.
Mission
Building a better tomorrow with open AI tools. That means weights that load without proprietary kernels, code anyone can audit, and a coding agent — claire — that runs on your machine against the keys you already have. Releasing soon under MIT.
How we work
Datasets, training scripts, evals and weights ship together. No quality gates, no proprietary kernels, no waitlists, no telemetry. Built in Germany — but the work is the work.

06 — Dispatch
First in line for claire.
One letter every other Tuesday — and a single dispatch on the day claire ships with the install line. What we shipped, what we read, the one thing we got wrong. No hype, no roadmap teasers. Cancel from any line.
