Intelligence that stays human

Frontier AI, small enough to run anywhere — and answering only to you.

TNT Holley, Inc. invents efficient, interpretable, on-device AI — and puts it to work across original research, government and defense, and game design.

Three things we do

One research core. Three places it goes to work.

Everything starts with our own AI research — novel ways to make models smaller, faster, and inspectable — and flows into the work below.

🧠

AI Research

Original architectures for efficient, interpretable intelligence — including new approaches to how models represent information and perception systems for vision and audio designed to run at the edge, on the hardware you already own.

🛡️

Government & Defense

That research, built for the public sector: private, on-device perception and inference for constrained, disconnected, and security-sensitive environments. Capability statement available for contracting officers.

Game Design

Cometforge gives game characters a real memory and a brain — NPCs that remember players across sessions and keep their word. Runs in the cloud, on your own server, or fully on-device, as an Unreal Engine plugin.
