Founder · Vext Labs, Inc.
Vext Labs is an independent AI research lab and the maker of JUWEL. Annalea Layton founded it. We build tools, publish research, and read every serious note.
How we work
Four rules keep the work honest.
Prove
Set a pass-or-fail test before we say a model got better.
Limits
Small tests stay small. A plan is never sold as a result.
Freeze
We add new parts. We never change the old ones.
Publish
We publish what failed, too.
Team
More people, when we hire.
We only hire for funded jobs. When new people join, they will show up here with a photo and a short bio.
