About Nano

An AI-native security and observability platform for cloud, local, hybrid, and air-gapped teams. Sub-second search, detection engineering, OpenTelemetry, pivt AI, and deployment control in one place. Run nano in the cloud, locally, hybrid, or air-gapped. nano was built from scratch, not refactored: a dedicated cluster, one query language over your security and OpenTelemetry data, agentic investigation, and deployment options from cloud to air-gapped. So when a service slows down, "is this an outage or a breach?" is one query, not two tools and a guess.

About Needle2

An open 45M-parameter model for tool calling, device use, and structured extraction. Needle 2 runs as a 14 MB binary in 28 MB of session RAM. Needle 2 is measured end-to-end through the shipped binary at CQ2-bit deployment precision with tool retrieval on; baselines run the released checkpoints under vLLM, and Apple FM runs on-device. Bringing On-Device AI to <$200 Devices : Edge AI has lately meant Macs and PCs, but the true edge is mostly cheap hardware: there are more than 21 billion IoT devices against roughly 1.5 billion PCs.
