At Liquid, we’re not just building AI models — we’re redefining the architecture of intelligence itself. Spun out of MIT, our mission is to build efficient AI systems at every scale. Our Liquid Foundation Models (LFMs) operate where others can’t: on-device, at the edge, under real-time constraints. We’re not iterating on old ideas — we’re architecting what comes next.
We believe great talent powers great technology. The Liquid team is a community of world-class engineers, researchers, and business leaders creating the next generation of AI. Whether you’re building foundational architectures, forging pivotal partnerships, or driving enterprise adoption — your work will directly shape the future of intelligent systems.

Spun out of MIT CSAIL, we’re a foundation model company headquartered in Boston. Our mission is to build capable and efficient general-purpose AI systems at every scale — from phones and vehicles to enterprise servers and embedded chips. Our models are designed to run where others stall: on CPUs, with low latency, minimal memory, and maximum reliability. We’re already partnering with global enterprises across consumer electronics, automotive, life sciences, and financial services. And we’re just getting started.
