Show HN: Jinfer – AI inference engine for the JVM. AI in a jar Hi HN,
Some would call AI on the JVM quixotic. And so, Quixotic AI was born. jinfer is an inference engine for the JVM: chat, vision, audio, embeddings, reranking, and TTS. No Python runtime, no ONNX, no Docker containers, no sidecar process, no IPC. Finally, AI in a jar. The stack underneath is built for the JVM rather than bolted onto it: toknroll: pure-Java tokenizers, zero dependencies
gguf / safetensors: read and write llama.cpp and HuggingFace model formats
jam: quantized matmul kernels, competitive with llama.cpp on CPU
jota: Tensor API targeting Java, C, CUDA, HIP, Metal, OpenCL, and Mojo
It ships with integrations for Spring AI and LangChain4j, and is compatible with GraalVM Native Image for low-overhead, self-contained binaries with millisecond startup. This is an early release (CPU only): I'd especially like feedback on the API surface. Site: https://qxotic.ai
