I can’t believe it’s already been seven months since we introduced OPEn (Open Platform for Energy) and promised to keep you in the loop. Time really does fly, or maybe my memory just isn’t what it used to be! A lot has happened since then, and while I thought I’d shared all the updates… turns out I hadn’t.

So, here’s a quick recap:

• We realized that relying on cloud-based AI services, tools, and models made OPEn way too expensive to be practical. That led to a big shift in focus: we moved to a local, embedded solution. After a ton of research (check out the full story [here]), we’ve hit about 80% success and uncovered lots of ways to improve even more.

• To make everything open, collaborative, and completely license-free, along with Rolf Bienert at Bienert Consulting, we established the non-profit NuCore^AI Foundation and donated all our work products, including code, AI models, agents, and workflow to the community.
