Nous Research

Nous Research is an AI research lab creating world-class models out in the open. We are best known for the Hermes series of open-source models, which are general purpose, human-aligned, lightweight models downloaded more than 50 million times on HuggingFace. In the process of developing these models, Nous is building a fully open AI stack, allowing anyone to meaningfully participate in the development of frontier intelligence, beginning with our fully distributed pre-training network, Psyche.
