Mirai is an AI lab developing a foundational model and inference infrastructure for on-device AI, enabling local LLM execution with ultra-low latency. 📱 Today, the AI economy scales poorly through cloud computing and GPU inference. Over time, a significant portion of AI workloads will shift from servers directly to user devices. 🔝 The company was founded by the founders of Prisma labs (one of the pioneers of on-device ML) and Reface (100+ million users), and has also attracted $10 million in a seed round. Fully remote, distributed team (from London to Tokyo), English is the primary working language.
