Deploying AI models in tiny devices is hard. Typical solutions rely on constant connectivity to cloud services (compromising data privacy), and/or power-hungry and costly dedicated hardware (e.g. GPUs). We create end-to-end solutions that you can use to instantly deploy ultra low power and high performance EdgeAI in 1$ chips Deploying AI models in tiny devices is hard.
