IBM Granite Integrations

LM-Kit.NET is a complete local AI runtime for .NET that lets engineering teams ship AI-powered features without cloud dependencies, per-token costs, or data leaving the network. Most .NET AI integrations stop at inference. LM-Kit.NET covers the full range of capabilities production applications actually need: agentic workflows with tool calling, planning, and memory; document intelligence with OCR and structured extraction; retrieval-augmented generation with built-in vector storage; multilingual speech-to-text; vision and multimodal understanding; text analysis with classification, NER, PII extraction, and sentiment; and text generation with translation, summarization, and constrained output. Ships in one NuGet package, runs in-process with no sidecar services, and works across all major hardware acceleration backends. Drop-in replacement for Semantic Kernel through its Microsoft.Extensions.AI compatibility layer.

The platform is designed to minimize startup time, providing near-instant access to GPU pods, and ensures scalability with autoscaling capabilities for real-time AI model deployment. Runpod also offers serverless functionality, job queuing, and real-time analytics, making it an ideal solution for businesses needing flexible, cost-effective GPU resources without the hassle of managing infrastructure.

We introduce the Granite series of decoder-only code models for code generative tasks (e.g., fixing bugs, explaining code, documenting code), trained with code written in 116 programming languages. A comprehensive evaluation of the Granite Code model family on diverse tasks demonstrates that our models consistently reach state-of-the-art performance among available open source code LLMs. The key advantages of Granite Code models include: All-rounder Code LLM: Granite Code models achieve competitive or state-of-the-art performance on different kinds of code-related tasks, including code generation, explanation, fixing, editing, translation, and more. Demonstrating their ability to solve diverse coding tasks. Trustworthy Enterprise-Grade LLM: All our models are trained on license-permissible data collected following IBM's AI Ethics principles and guided by IBM’s Corporate Legal team for trustworthy enterprise usage.

Locally AI is an on-device AI application that allows users to run powerful language models directly on their iPhone, iPad, or Mac without relying on cloud infrastructure or an internet connection. Built on Apple’s MLX framework, it delivers fast, efficient performance while minimizing power usage, enabling a seamless experience for chatting, creating, learning, and exploring AI capabilities across devices. It supports multiple open models such as Llama, Gemma, Qwen, and DeepSeek, allowing users to switch between them and tailor outputs to different tasks. Everything runs entirely offline, meaning no login is required, and no data is collected or transmitted, ensuring complete privacy and control over personal information. Users can interact with AI through natural conversations, analyze documents or images, and generate text in a unified interface designed for simplicity and responsiveness.
