Our research

We share open proof-of-concepts where the work can help the wider community. Each is a compact model that demonstrates the perception and grounding skills behind Brend. The first is brend-2b, an open-weights GUI-grounding model.

brend-2b

brend-2b-260602

An open-weights GUI-grounding model: a screenshot and an instruction in, a click out. A compact GRPO fine-tune of Qwen3-VL-2B, released so the community can run it, fine-tune it, and build on it.

Production is separate. Enterprise models are trained, compiled, and deployed strictly inside your own isolated, air-gapped environment, and never shipped from ours.

Principles

How we work.

Build it
ourselves
  • Observation over instruction, learn from watching, not from explicit programming
  • Understanding over mimicry, grasp intent and context, not just surface actions
  • Build it ourselves, we train our own models and run our own infrastructure
  • Open what we can, share work that helps the field move forward
