Edge0 is an open-source inference framework and model family for running large sparse mixture-of-experts (MoE) models on consumer hardware. It streams only the experts needed for each step from SSD into memory, using a trained router that predicts expert loads a step ahead. The project reports running a 35B MoE in roughly 2.9 GB and an 8B variant in about 1 GB, with a Recover LoRA to regain quality lost to int4 quantization.\n\nThe latest release (2026-11-13) adds edge0-145b and edge0-120b, latent-MoE models derived from Qwen3.8-Flash-Next and trained natively at 4 bits, distributed in Q3_K and NVFP4 checkpoints on Hugging Face. They run on edge0-strata (a fork of Strata) on Linux or Windows with an NVIDIA GPU (CUDA 13), or on Apple Silicon Macs via Metal. The README reports 121.2 tok/s agent decode for 145B Q3_K on an RTX 5090 D 24 GB. The earlier 35B and 8B previews run on edge0-infer, a GGML-based C++ engine that covers macOS, iOS, Android, Linux and Windows.\n\nIt is used through a CLI (edge0-infer serve and chat), an OpenAI-compatible local server, or the Edge0 Chat app examples. A technical report is on arXiv. Support varies by model and engine: the 145B/120B models are not supported on iOS or Android, and native-engine support for the 8B checkpoint is still planned. Benchmark figures come from the project's own README.
