Liquid AI has launched Pipette, an open-source benchmarking suite for on-device AI built with Artificial Analysis. Per the company's LinkedIn post, summarised by TipRanks, it benchmarks models on real hardware for quality, speed, latency and memory use.
Why it mattersThe suite aggregates more than 10,000 verified results across 35 model classes, seven quantisation schemes, llama.cpp runtimes and four device types, and accepts new devices, runtimes and model families through a unified interface. Open source, with apps for Android and iOS. Inference is creeping onto phones and pocket hardware, and the question is what a model loses on the way down. The 10,000 figure is the company's own count, a launch claim until independent runs pile up. Benchmark plumbing rarely makes headlines, but somebody has to own the ruler.
Discuss: A company that sells on-device models now co-runs the ruler for on-device models: can Pipette stay a neutral yardstick, or does it need independent stewardship to be trusted?
