Show HN: Distill and serve models with frontier quality for half the cost

https://github.com/experientiallabs/world-model-optimizer
41•SilenN•1h ago
Hi HN, we built world-model-optimizer, an open source tool to continually improve models specialized to agents.

Agent traces you already capture are opportunities to get signal on how to make your model cheaper, faster, better.

We do this by continuously a) distilling relevant chain of thought from larger open source models into smaller ones, b) model routing to frontier + OS models, and c) token compaction to remove noise and save on tokens.

`wmo build` allows you to build a simulation to optimize against with your agent traces with your OpenRouter key

`wmo optimize` trains a router, compaction, and distills chain of thought from a larger model into your specialized model

`wmo serve` gives you an endpoint for your model

When you call your model, behind the scenes a router decides which tasks should go to the frontier versus your model. Tinker continually trains as new traces arrive.

We're also working on a hosted solution that does continual training + serving for you https://experientiallabs.ai

Excited to play with this.

Let me know if you have any questions!
jack_pp•1h ago
Not sure I get it. The model you're improving is local? If so how do you even calculate cost compared to an API
SilenN•49m ago
Open source models.

wmo routes requests between frontier models and open source models that continuously train using Tinker. As the smaller models improve, more traffic gets routed to them.

Calculating cost is just tokens in/out.

Cool idea! How do you guarantee privacy?
SilenN•48m ago
It's open source!

We do have a platform we'll be launching as well to manage training + serving for you which will require more diligent privacy guarantees.

Cool project
SilenN•39m ago
Thanks :)

Local models need to be tuned to work well so this looks useful. Seems to be for general purpose model serving. I’ve been using https://github.com/adrianco/retort to run experiments for coding models across 13 different programming languages to see which frontier and local models work.
SilenN•55m ago
That's cool, thanks for sharing!
Art9681•54m ago
The absolute best way to prove this works is by releasing a model that was fine-tuned with this method and then showing benchmarks depicting the improvement delta between the base model and the fine tuned one.

The work is not done. Then release it to the masses and wait a few days for the actual real world anecdotes.

Until then, this is noise.

Reubend•50m ago
Yeah, this is just slop. No benchmarks, no concrete case studies, just some vibecoded "platform" to finetune models on your own traces.

Which is an idea that has some value, but also some weaknesses. And this implementation of it isn't forthcoming with that concept. You have to really dig in to understand what they're even talking about.

The title is misleading. This is model routing, not distillation.
SilenN•38m ago
Fixed formatting which will help with readability. We do routing, distillation, and token compaction.
SilenN•47m ago
Valid criticism. Happy to answer any qs. We're still working on solidfying results.
dang•46m ago
Ok, I think it is in your interest to wait until you have more to show, and we'll be happy to help you with reposting it once it's ready.

Waitlists are against the Show HN rules (https://news.ycombinator.com/showhn.html), and you're likely to get a lot of community pushback if you post before there's enough substance for users to sink their teeth into.

Thanks for the heads up, removed mention!
