Small models I can actually run, understand, and deploy.

Talachu is a guide to small AI models you can run yourself.

I like models that I can run locally, understand at the systems level, and actually put into something. Everything on this site is about those models — what they are, what they cost in memory, and where they win.

The Models page lists the ones worth running, with memory and a start command for each. The Blog holds the math and the notes. Builds is my workbench, where a small model gets put to real work.
