Why this exists
Big general models are good at everything and great at nothing. They burn
hundreds of watts to do work that fits in a 36 MB adapter.
This is one specialist from the Qovaryx compact-intelligence release. It does
one job — meeting summarization + action extraction — and it does it at 100.0% mean accuracy on
a 60-row held-out evaluation, with a 95% bootstrap-CI lower bound of 100.0%
against a strict gate of 95.0%.
That's the bar.
What it's good for
- Meeting note → JSON action items (owner + due)
- Attendee extraction from invites
- Decision summarization with topic + decisions list
- Followup detection from past-due commitments
- On-device meeting intelligence
Headline result
Table with columns: Metric, Value| Metric | Value |
|---|
| Task | meeting summarization + action extraction |
| Mean accuracy (n=60 holdout) | 100.0% |
| Bootstrap-CI lower bound (95% conf) | 100.0% |
| Strict gate | 95.0% |
| Status | PASS at strict CI |
Quickstart
from peft import PeftModelfrom transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForCausalLM base = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained( "HuggingFaceTB/SmolLM2-1.7B-Instruct", torch_dtype="bfloat16", device_map="auto",)tok = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("HuggingFaceTB/SmolLM2-1.7B-Instruct")model = PeftModel.from_pretrained(base, "tjarvis91/Q-Meeting-1B-LoRA")model.eval() chat = [{"role": "user", "content": "Extract action items from: 'Carol will share SOW Monday. Dave to confirm legal review by Tue.' JSON {actions:[{owner,due}]}."}]prompt = tok.apply_chat_template(chat, tokenize=False, add_generation_prompt=True)inputs = tok(prompt, return_tensors="pt").to(model.device)out = model.generate(**inputs, max_new_tokens=120, do_sample=False, pad_token_id=tok.pad_token_id)print(tok.decode(out[0, inputs["input_ids"].shape[1]:], skip_special_tokens=True))
Expected output:
{"actions": [{"owner": "Carol", "due": "Monday"}, {"owner": "Dave", "due": "Tuesday"}]}
Compact intelligence is not small intelligence
This model has 18 million trainable parameters (LoRA rank 16 on a 1.7B base).
It runs in bf16 on CPU in a few hundred milliseconds per call. It hits a
100.0% precision bar that most large general models miss because they're
optimizing for breadth, not depth.
Intelligence per watt > parameter count.

Local AI, no cloud
This adapter ships as part of a local-first AI thesis. No telemetry. No data
leaves the machine. The base model is open. The adapter is signed and
watermarked. The runtime is yours.
The story
Qovaryx is a research line on local-first AI for the constraint-aware operator.
The original Qovaryx Options Decoder closed 15-of-15 internal benchmark cells at
strict bootstrap-CI lower bound, then shipped as a public CPU runtime at
Qovaryx/qovaryx-options-decoder-full-community.
This adapter applies the same compact-intelligence discipline to office work:
single-task LoRA, strict-CI-gated, on-device. The training recipe stays in-house
— the same posture we used for the Options Decoder. What's published is the
artifact and the headline metric.
Limitations
- One job, one specialist. Out-of-domain prompts will get out-of-domain answers.
- This is a LoRA adapter, not a standalone model — you need
HuggingFaceTB/SmolLM2-1.7B-Instruct as the base.
- Holdout is n=60 — a strong CI but not a production cert. Validate on your own data.
- Not financial, medical, legal, or employment advice. Human review for high-stakes use.
Watermark
Each released adapter carries a unique fingerprint in adapter_config.json
(_qovaryx_watermark.fingerprint) for attribution and tamper-detection. This
