New to Laya? The 60-second version, how this directory works, and where to go depending on whether you want to run it, port it, or evaluate it.
You found a directory of things people build with Laya, the open-source decision engine from ConvAI Innovations. This page is the map: sixty seconds of orientation, then a path picked by what you came for.
The 60-second version
Laya answers small, closed questions (labels, yes/no, scores) over any text or JSON state in one ~33 ms forward pass, with a calibrated probability on every answer. It doesn't chat and it doesn't write; that's the design. It is open weights (Apache 2.0), small enough to run under 1 GB on a laptop, and covers 100+ languages through a built-in router. It launched on 18 September 2026 as an open answer to Jev, and the ports and benchmarks started arriving the same week.
How this directory works
Every entry is a real thing someone shipped or measured: a repo, a port, a benchmark video, a demo. Entries carry the numbers their authors reported (latency, memory, decisions per second) as stamps, and link straight to the source. Nothing is verified by us; the receipts are the point. Entries are numbered in the order they were catalogued and never renumbered.
Pick your path
- I want to run it. Clone the repo,
pip install laya, and start with the Router quickstart. On a Mac, laya-mlx or the CoreML port will be faster. - I want to see it against Jev. The offline Snake run, the Tetris match, and the home-made benchmark that admits Jev still wins on quality.
- I want to classify things. The demo Space has eight workflows in the browser; the support and triage and security and fraud categories collect the production-shaped ones.
- I want to ship it somewhere odd. ONNX, GGUF, and a vision variant.
Frequently asked questions
Where are the official Laya docs?
In the GitHub README, maintained by ConvAI Innovations. This site never reproduces API details, because stale copies are worse than links.
Is this site affiliated with ConvAI Innovations?
No. Independent directory, human-curated, receipts required; sponsor slots are labeled as such and listings are free.
How do I get my build listed?
Submit it with the link and the numbers you measured. A human reviews every submission; real numbers get you to the top of the queue.
