After compressing models from major AI labs including OpenAI, Meta, DeepSeek and Mistral AI, Multiverse Computing has launched both an app that showcases the capabilities of its compressed models and an API that makes them more widely available.
Multiverse Computing pushes its compressed AI models into the mainstream Anna Heim 1:00 AM PDT · March 19, 2026 With private company defaults running at upwards of 9.2% — the highest rate in years — VC firm Lux Capital recently advised companies relying on AI to get their compute capacity commitments confirmed in writing .
With financial instability rippling through the AI supply chain, Lux warned, a handshake agreement isn’t enough.
But there’s another option entirely, which is to stop relying on external compute infrastructure altogether.
Smaller AI models that run directly on a user’s own device — no data center, no cloud provider, no counterparty risk — are getting good enough to be worth considering.
And Multiverse Computing is raising its hand.
The Spanish startup has so far kept a lower profile than some of its peers, but as demand for AI efficiency grows, this is changing.
