In the current phase where competition in large models is shifting from parameter scale to real-world deployment capability, a group of Chinese companies focused on edge AI is gaining attention, and Om AI Technology is one of them.
Founded in 2021, the company has chosen not to pursue extremely large cloud-based models, but instead focuses on edge-side general-purpose multimodal vision models, aiming to bring AI into real devices such as PCs, cameras, and robots.
At the BEYOND Expo 2026 media day, Om AI Technology showcased its AI-native content creation product developed in collaboration with Lenovo, OttoBox AI Studio. Designed for media professionals and content creators, it leverages local AI computing power to provide capabilities such as video analysis, asset matching, script generation, and rapid video production.
The company positions it as a content creation companion for the AI-native era, aiming to improve creative efficiency.
Compared with many AI companies that move from general-purpose models into application layers, Om AI starts from a more industry-driven foundation. The team has long been deeply involved in the media and audiovisual industry, and therefore emphasizes building models based on real-world problems rather than looking for nails with a hammer.
