We're a small, independent research team pushing the boundaries of language models, video generation, and multimodal AI — making powerful tools accessible to everyone.
SmilyAI is an indie AI research lab focused on building capable, efficient models without the overhead of big tech. We believe the most meaningful progress happens when small teams move fast and stay focused.
Our work spans large language models, video generation, and multimodal systems — all built with an open-first philosophy.
Every product starts as a research question.
We share our work with the community.
Small team, no bureaucracy, rapid iteration.
Quality over quantity in everything we build.
Our active research initiatives — from production language models to next-generation multimodal systems.
