Edge Studio

Edge Studio is a local web workbench for model optimization, validation, export, and device coordination. It takes a source model and produces deployment-ready artifacts: Edge Kit bundles, GGUF/CoreML exports, Neural Imprint artifacts, or a complete Edge Scaffold project.

Developer Preview

Validate every exported model on the target device before shipping. Build success alone is not sufficient.

Where it fits

Source model → Edge Studio → Optimized bundle → Edge Kit (inference) → Your agent
Neural Imprint artifact → Edge Halo restore flow
Edge Scaffold project → Xcode → Your agent

Edge Studio is the local workbench. Edge Kit and Edge Halo are the runtime packages. They are separate — your shipping agent does not depend on Edge Studio.

How to launch

python3.11 -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
python -m pip install --upgrade pip
python -m pip install edge-studio

Developer workflow

  1. Load or select a source model.
  2. Inspect model architecture and device fit.
  3. Optimize and benchmark with the target device in mind.
  4. Export an Edge Kit bundle or Edge Scaffold project.
  5. Pair a test device with EdgeMesh when personalization or device receipts are needed.
  6. Generate or inspect Neural Imprint artifacts locally.
  7. Validate on a real device before shipping.

Edge Studio prepares and audits artifacts. Your shipping agent consumes those artifacts through Edge Kit and Edge Halo.

Requirements

  • Python 3.11+, Node.js 18+
  • Recommended: Mac with sufficient memory for the source model
