AFM delivers enterprise-scale Al power without enterprise-scale infrastructure. Built for modest hardware and seamless deployment, AFM enables faster, more affordable launch and scaling of powerful language model solutions, at a fraction of the hosting cost of much larger LLMs while matching performance. Optimized for low-RAM GPUs or even CPUs, AFM is ideal for constrained environments, edge devices, or cost-sensitive use cases. Unlike black-box models, AFM is fully open: open architecture, open weights, and no vendor lock-in. You can deploy AFM in any environment, on-premises, in the cloud, or hybrid, and integrate it using popular open-source frameworks like Hugging Face Transformers, vLLM, or llama.cpp. AFM also includes native support for function calling and agentic reasoning, enabling tool use and workflow automation without fragile prompt chains. Trained on clean, legally sound data, AFM-4.SB performs across 1O+ languages.
