WebAI

Modular secure edge AI platform

Overview

WebAI provides a modular, secure Deep Learning Platform for research, distributed deployment, and enterprise AI, designed to run efficiently on edge devices with limited connectivity. Developers, subject-matter experts, and enterprises can collect, train, and deploy neural networks autonomously through a subscription-based suite of AI tools, with optional custom model development and deployment support. The platform uses encryption and proprietary runtime stacks to ensure secure data handling and high-accuracy performance, while its interoperability lets users integrate new code across environments. WebAI differentiates itself through edge-friendly operation, low data requirements, strong security, and a modular architecture aimed at making advanced AI accessible to sectors like healthcare, finance, and manufacturing.

webAI secures $30M to build private, specialised AI systems for enterprises

webAI has secured $30 million through a strategic partnership with Forge AI Deployment to develop private, specialised AI systems for enterprises. The collaboration combines webAI's intelligence platform with Forge's enterprise deployment capabilities to create bespoke AI solutions tailored to businesses' specific data, workflows, and operational requirements. Forge, led by founder and CEO John Ezzell, will handle the design, deployment, and operation of these systems. The partnership emphasises specialised models over general-purpose AI, with webAI's "decision factory intelligence" architecture enabling multiple AI personas to work as integrated experts. WebAI co-founder and CEO David Stout stated the goal is "a collaborative system of specialised intelligences working seamlessly together" rather than a single omniscient model. The partnership marks a shift from AI subscription services towards business ownership of AI tools.

webAI Frontline cuts aircraft manual search from 16 hours to 20 minutes, offline, on a single iPad

webAI has launched Frontline, an on-device AI system that reduces aircraft manual searches from 16 hours to 20 minutes. The system, tested at a European regional maintenance operation, processed 34,000 pages of approved jet fleet manuals on a single iPad, returning cited source pages in under two seconds. The technology targets industries where workers must consult approved documentation before performing tasks, including aviation, manufacturing, and medical device servicing. Frontline operates entirely offline, keeping sensitive technical documentation on the device without requiring internet connectivity. The system uses proprietary architecture reducing memory requirements by 30 times, alongside a custom embedding model for technical documents. It runs on standard Apple Silicon hardware and charges no per-prompt fees. Frontline is available through co-development engagements. webAI works directly with customers to build document sets using their approved materials.

webAI releases TwIL-LM: A 1.7B and 3B formal-logic model family for autoformalization on local hardware.

webAI releases TwIL-LM: A 1.7B and 3B formal-logic model family for autoformalization on local hardware. August 10, 2026 webAI has released TwIL-LM, a two-model family of formal-logic reasoners at 1.7B and 3B parameters. The 3B member, TwIL-LM3, is a merged fine-tune of SmolLM3-3B; the 1.7B member is a PEFT LoRA adapter for SmolLM2-1.7B-Instruct. Both target autoformalization: translating English into first-order logic and checking whether a conclusion follows from its premises. Both run locally, with a 1.06 GB quantized build for the 1.7B and a 1.78 GiB Q4_K_M GGUF for the 3B. webAI's announcement frames the release around beating gpt-oss-120b on four of five formal-reasoning lanes. Is it deployable? Partially. Non-commercial use only, as of now. Both checkpoints ship under the webAI Non-Commercial License ver. 1.0. Revenue-generating deployment requires a separate agreement with webAI. * Company level: any size. The 3B Q4_K_M GGUF is 1.78 GiB and runs on CPU or 4 GB of VRAM. The 1.7B Q4_K_M is 1.06 GB. * Industries: compliance and RegTech, financial services, healthcare and pharma, legal and contract operations, formal-methods research. webAI positions local execution for environments where data cannot leave the device. * Applications: first-order logic (FOL) translation, entailment classification over premise sets, natural language to structured query, Lean formalization drafting and critique, and a verifier layer that checks a larger model's output. How TwIL-LM3 was built? Four stages sit on top of the base model. LoRA supervised fine-tuning on a synthetic formal-logic corpus. Checkpoint fusion, averaging intermediate SFT checkpoints in parameter space. WiSE-FT interpolation back toward the pretrained base at λ = 0.25. Then MGPO, an entropy-weighted GRPO stage run against a programmatic verifier. The published checkpoint is step 2071. That λ is load-bearing: only a quarter of the fine-tuned delta is retained. A sibling arm that skipped the interpolation scored higher in-domain, at macro gate 0.515, but gave back roughly twelve points of held-out capability. webAI did not publish that arm. Performance. webAI's announcement lists 96.4 on rule induction, 87.6 on semantic parsing, 64.6 on Lean formalization, 52.0 on exact-format answering, and 68.7 on entailment labeling. It reports two tracks. On Track A, in-domain formal logic, TwIL-LM3 scores 0.4488 on the six-lane average and 0.4218 on the macro gate, the metric the training pipeline gates on. It leads every arm up to and including LFM2.5-8B-A1B on all six objective lanes, at 0.4218 against 0.3757 with a third of the parameters. It does not lead the two largest arms. Qwen3-8B takes the gate 0.5336 to 0.4218, but most of that is loose-match credit; under strict-7 the two sit at 0.2093 and 0.1971. gpt-oss-120b takes the six-lane average 0.5192 to 0.4488. Efficiency is where the model card is unambiguous. TwIL-LM3 produces the shortest generations of any arm, 482 tokens on Track B, and consequently the most answers per second at 32.9 against the 120B's 4.2. Held-out transfer. TwIL-LM3 improves in-domain by +26% relative, macro gate 0.336 to 0.422, while also gaining +0.022 on the held-out core average. The model card calls it the only arm in the project that gains on both tracks. LogicBench moves to 0.7167 from 0.6467. GSM8K slips slightly to 0.8733 from 0.8833, and IFEval regresses to 0.6433 from 0.6767. The 1.7B is a different trade. Its macro-primary score is 0.361 against 0.185 for the unadapted base. Out-of-distribution results are mixed: LogicBench BQA improves to 0.590 from 0.563, while GSM8K falls to 0.380 from 0.413 and ARC-C chain-of-thought falls to 0.463 from 0.587. Key takeaways. * TwIL-LM3 (3B) and TwIL-LM (1.7B) target formal logic, both under a non-commercial license. * Shipping TwIL-LM3 trails gpt-oss-120b on the six-lane average, 0.4488 to 0.5192. * Its real edge is efficiency: 32.9 answers/sec from 482-token generations. * WiSE-FT at λ = 0.25 is why in-domain gains do not collapse held-out performance.

webAI releases TwiL-LM: 3B logic model beats 120B rival on four benchmarks, runs on iPhone

webAI has released TwiL-LM, a family of small formal-logic language models designed for compliance rules, contract logic, and research reasoning. The 3-billion-parameter model outperforms OpenAI's 120-billion-parameter gpt-oss-120b on four of five formal-reasoning benchmarks, whilst the 1.7-billion-parameter variant leads all sub-2-billion models tested. TwiL-LM specialises in translating plain English into formal logic and multi-step deductive reasoning. The 3B model achieves scores of 96.4 versus 65.2 on rule induction and 87.6 versus 43.3 on semantic parsing, significantly outpacing the larger model. The 1.06-gigabyte quantised build runs on consumer hardware, including smartphones, at approximately 367 tokens per second. It operates entirely on-device without cloud connectivity, addressing data sovereignty requirements in regulated sectors. Both variants are available on Hugging Face under the webAI Non-Commercial Licence.
