The frontier of open-weight model releases
Open-weight model releases tracked by RunLocalAI — recent additions, rising families, distill chains, multimodal and reasoning waves. Each card links into the catalog with authority badges (L1.25 enriched · benchmark-backed · verdict) so you can scan editorial coverage at a glance.
