🚀 Novi AI
Novi AI is an experimental AI project focused on building small, efficient language models and exploring what can be achieved at the million-parameter scale.
🧠 Models
| Model | Parameters | Training Tokens | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| Novi-Nano | 1M | 300M | ✅ Released |
| Novi-Micro | 5M | 1B | ✅ Released |
| Novi-Mini | 10M | 15B | 📋 Planned |
| Novi-Medium | 25M | 25B | 📋 Planned |
| Novi-Pro | 50M | 65B | 📋 Planned |
| Novi-Ultimate | 100M | 75B | 📋 Planned |
⭐ Novi-Micro
Novi-Micro is the latest released Novi base model and the next step after Novi-Nano.
With approximately 5.04 million parameters, Novi-Micro was trained from scratch on 1 billion tokens with a 2,048-token context window.
- 🧠 ~5.04M parameters
- 📚 1B training tokens
- 🔤 16,384-token vocabulary
- 📏 2,048-token context
- 🌐 FineWeb-HQ
- ⚡ GPU-accelerated training
- 🏗️ Custom BananaMind 2-style architecture
- 💻 Designed for lightweight experimentation
Novi-Micro is a base language model, intended primarily for research, experimentation, and further training rather than instruction-following.
🔹 Novi-Nano
Novi-Nano was the first released Novi model, introducing the project at the million-parameter scale.
- 🧠 ~1.26M parameters
- 📚 300M training tokens
- 🔤 8,192-token vocabulary
- 📏 256-token context
- 🌐 FineWeb-Edu, FineWeb-HQ, and SmolLM-Cosmopedia
- ⚡ GPU-accelerated training
- 💻 Designed for lightweight experimentation
Novi-Nano remains available as an earlier-generation experimental model.
🧪 Experimental Projects
- Novi-Code — Compact text + code model
- Yuki — Image-generation research
- Super-Novi — Intentionally chaotic experiment
- Hyper-Novi — Experimental model exploring unconventional training data
These projects are experimental and may change, be renamed, or never be released.
🛠️ Project Kairo
Project Kairo is the development codename for the Novi project.
It encompasses the development and experimentation behind the Novi model series, including Novi-Micro and future models.
📜 Project History
AppleMind
Before Novi, there was AppleMind — an earlier experimental language-model project.
AppleMind is now retired, with Novi becoming the primary project.
AppleMind → Novi AI → Novi-Nano → Novi-Micro 🚀
Small models. Big experiments.
