Xnor AI

Xnor AI is a Seattle company that makes efficient artificial intelligence software for edge devices such as cameras, cars, drones, wearables and IoT products. Its platform lets developers run complex deep learning models locally, work that previously needed the cloud.

Running on the device keeps data private, removes the need for a connection and cuts memory and power demands. The company grew out of academic research at a university and an AI research institute.

What Xnor AI offers

• On-device deep learning — complex models that run locally on a range of hardware.
• Privacy by design — data stays on the device rather than going to a server.
• Offline operation — no network connection required.
• Low resource use — reduced memory and power requirements.
