--- title: README emoji: 🏢 colorFrom: yellow colorTo: indigo sdk: static pinned: false --- TheStage AI is a team of AI researchers and engineers focused on efficient model inference. On Hugging Face, we publish **Elastic** checkpoints (Transformers, Diffusers, ASR) optimized for fast, cost-efficient serving. Links: [Docs](https://docs.thestage.ai) • [Web app](https://app.thestage.ai) Elastic Models are released as **ready-to-run checkpoints** and performance tiers (**S / M / L / XL**) so you can choose the best balance of quality, latency, and memory for your workload across NVIDIA GPUs (incl. Jetson), Apple Silicon, and edge devices. Pipeline (what makes these HF releases): **ANNA** (analyzes constraints & targets) • **Qlip** (quantizes/sparsifies + compiles for optimized runtime & serving) • **CLI/Platform** (run jobs, deploy, benchmark).
