Our Story

Why “Lamplit Labs”?

visual AI agentseducationdeveloper toolscareermedical prepcompliance

lamplit /ˈlamp·lɪt/

adjective — illuminated by the light of a lamp. A warm, focused glow that cuts through darkness and brings clarity to what matters.

We chose “Lamplit Labs” because it captures exactly how we work: shining a focused light on real problems, then building practical tools to solve them.

No hype, no complexity for its own sake — just clear, purposeful software that illuminates the path forward for our users.

Formerly known as bitesinbyte, we've grown from a side project into a lab that ships products used by thousands.

Lamplit Light · our AI lab

AI that runs where you are.

We build small, specialised models you host yourself - in a browser, on a laptop, on-prem, in your private cloud, inside your app or on the edge. Your data never leaves. The weights are yours.

small models · hosted by you · no data leaves

where it runs

The runtime changes, the model does not.

Sovereign means you hold the weights, control the hardware, and decide when models change, what they cost, and who reads traffic.

01

Browser

Runs on WebGPU or WASM through transformers.js. Nothing leaves the tab.

02

Laptop

Local sessions on hardware already in your hands.

03

On-prem / private cloud

Your servers, your network. The same exported model.

04

Inside your app

Embedded where your product already runs, with no round trip.

05

Edge / IoT

Small enough to ship close to the signal.

how a model is built

A high-level path from job to shipped runtime.

Five stages, one bar to clear. A model that fails its gate does not ship.

build pipeline
  1. 01 / define

    Define the job

    A narrow purpose and a clear bar the model has to clear.

  2. 02 / verify

    Gather verified knowledge

    Ground the model in source material that can be checked.

  3. 03 / train

    Train a specialist

    A small model is trained for exactly this job and nothing else, so it stays small enough to run on your hardware.

  4. 04 / measure

    Measure

    Deterministic release gates and an independent judge panel decide what ships.

  5. 05 / ship

    Compress and ship

    Exported to ONNX and quantised, it loads straight into transformers.js.

the model family

One job per model. Every model yours to run.

  • One clearly defined job per model, named light-<purpose>-<version>.
  • Every release lists its purpose, base model, size, licence and gate result.
  • Models that fit run in the browser; the rest run on hardware you control.
  • Your prompts and data stay on the device or server you run the model on.
In development · public site coming to ai.lamplitlabs.com

Every model is measured before it ships. The release gates and the judge panel decide, and the numbers are published on the AI site — including the ones that fail.

Our Journey

From a side project to a lab

Six years of building useful things - and a clear view of where the light points next.

  1. 2020

    bitesinbyte is born

    What started as a side project: a place to learn in the open and ship small, useful software.

  2. 2024

    Leben in Deutschland goes live

    A citizenship test app and website - completely free. Most prep apps drown learners in ads, which defeats the purpose of learning. So we built one without the noise.

  3. 2025

    Kenntnistrainer & Fachsprachtrainer

    AI-powered exam simulation for international doctors in Germany - structured cases, instant feedback, and real medical German.

  4. 2026

    Amistio MVP launches

    Our visual AI agent builder goes live: agents that do real work, with versioning and approvals keeping humans in control.

  5. 2026

    bitesinbyte becomes Lamplit Labs

    A new name to match where we're headed - a lab that shines a focused light on real problems.

  6. 2026

    Lamplit Light: our AI lab

    We start building small, specialised models you host yourself - one model per job, each measured before it ships. AI that runs where you are.

What's next

A lab in the truest sense

As our name promises, we're going deeper: with Lamplit Light we research how models are built, trained and measured - and ship that knowledge as models you can run where your data lives, alongside practical tools that put it to work for people.

Sovereign AI with Lamplit Light

Small models you own and run yourself - each built for one job, measured against release gates and an independent judge panel before it ships.

Tools for humans

Building focused products for real use cases that genuinely benefit people.
