Uptime Industries wants to boost localized AI usage with an ‘AI-in-a-box’ called Lemony AI
- Uptime Industries introduces Lemony AI, an 'AI-in-a-box' portable device for on-premise AI infrastructure.
- Lemony AI can run large language models, AI agents, and workflows on a single node, with each device requiring only 65 watts of power.
- Clusters of Lemony nodes can be interconnected to form larger AI clusters, with each node capable of sustaining an LLM up to 75 billion parameters.
- Partnerships with IBM and JetBrains allow easier access to AI models, including closed models, for Uptime's customers.
- The idea for Lemony AI originated from a side project of Uptime's co-founders, leading to the development of a compact device for local AI processing.
- The emphasis on data privacy and ease of adoption aims to encourage organizations, especially those wary of cloud-based models, to embrace AI technologies.
- The device targets businesses in regulated sectors like finance, healthcare, and law, offering a self-contained solution for AI processing.
- Uptime has secured $2 million in seed funding and plans to further develop its devices, expanding compatibility to other hardware like Nvidia DGX Spark.
- Lemony AI is priced at $499 a month for up to five users, with future plans to enhance the software for multi-user team collaborations.
