LeanCompute is a community initiative to democratize AI for all, especially in resource-constrained settings. We build with open-source small language models that run on everyday devices and speak your language.
Slide to estimate what size model your phone or laptop can handle offline.
We lower the cost of AI, put it in your pocket, and make it speak the languages of your community. From youth trainings to tools for small businesses and elders, we believe it's never too late to create with AI.
Small language models fine-tuned for local tasks that run on modest hardware.
Interfaces for English, French, Swahili, and local languages as content grows.
SMS/USSD and Android-first tools for learning and micro-enterprise.
Short, hands-on workshops to turn curiosity into careers.
Type a question — we’ll show a representative reply as if from a small on-device model.
Schools, youth groups, libraries — let’s run a workshop together.
Developers, designers, translators — help build open tools.
Sponsor devices, data, or venues to unlock local impact.
