ACTVITE / LAB

AI research · geometry & physics

Train the geometry.Build the instrument.

actVite trains custom models and hosts them locally. Private embeddings, vector databases, and RAG stay on your side of the line. Language models and decision models go into electronics, and we 3D-print the instrument around them.

The work
Icosahedron · 12 / 30

Apparatus 01 — move across the solid. Edge length fixed at 2.

01

Train

Custom weights, measured before they are hosted.

02

Host

Local models, private embeddings, vector DB, RAG.

03

Build

Electronics, decision models, and printed form.

Research programs

Six pieces of the same instrument.

  1. 01

    Train

    Custom model training

    Training runs against your data, your loss, and the things the model is not allowed to invent. You leave with weights, an evaluation record, and adapters when a full retrain is the wrong tool.

  2. 02

    Host

    Local model hosting

    The weights run on hardware you control. Prompts and completions stay inside that boundary. No shared tenancy, no silent offsite log of the work.

  3. 03

    Index

    Private embeddings and vector databases

    Embedding models and the vector store, hosted privately. The index is yours. Documents, chunks, and nearest neighbors do not sit in someone else’s database.

  4. 04

    Retrieve

    Private RAG

    Retrieval wired only to that private index. Answers are constrained to the corpus you own, with the passages kept available for inspection.

  5. 05

    Silicon

    Language and decision models in electronics

    Language models and decision models designed into the circuit. Sensors, power, latency, and the act the board is allowed to take are part of the objective.

  6. 06

    Form

    Custom 3D printing

    Housings, fixtures, and instrument bodies printed for that board and that model. The enclosure is part of the device, not a box chosen afterward.

What we measure

Physics stays in the loop.

A model that only wins on a dataset is unfinished. The bench includes the body the weights will live in, and the boundary they are not allowed to cross.

Boundary

Where the weights, embeddings, and vector store are allowed to live.

Retrieval

Private RAG only over the index you own, with passages you can inspect.

Silicon

Language and decision models measured on the electronics that will ship.

Form

Printed housings and fixtures that fit the board, not a generic shell.

Method

From constraint to a thing you can hold.

I

Name the geometry

What is fixed: data, latency, power, privacy boundary, and what a wrong act costs.

II

Train and host

Custom weights, then local hosting. Embeddings and the vector database stay private.

III

Retrieve or act

Private RAG for language. Decision models on the board when the output is an action.

IV

Print the body

If it needs a physical form, we print the instrument around the electronics.

Brief

Tell us the shape of the problem.

Name the constraint: where the weights may live, what retrieval may see, what the board may do, and what has to be printed. Sending a brief opens your mail application. Nothing is stored on this site.
