Terminus

Terminus is an operating system designed to give users ownership and control over their data, hardware, and software. It features an AI Framework that enables local deployment and management of open-source AI models, including LLMs, image, vision, and speech models. Terminus aims to provide a decentralized alternative to centralized AI services, focusing on privacy, cost-effectiveness, and composability for both users and developers.

Terminus offers an AI Framework that allows users to integrate open-source LLMs, Image, Vision, and Speech models locally, indicating support for conversational AI, image generation, and multimodal AI. It also mentions developers can call local models using an API, fulfilling the API access feature. The integration with Dify.ai and the ability to use local models for answering questions based on local files suggests a form of fine-tuning or custom model usage. While it emphasizes self-hosting and data ownership, it also mentions a 'cloud version of Terminus' for enterprise-like solutions, though not explicitly an 'enterprise tier'. Safety and alignment are not explicitly detailed as a framework, but the focus on data privacy and local control implicitly addresses some safety concerns.
