Researching the future of how businesses think.
Native is a research-first AI lab building Small Language Models and living interfaces that learn directly from how teams talk, decide, and work.
From chat to cognition. From UX to intelligence.
Why Native Exists
We believe every business has a language. Not just words — but patterns, habits, instincts, workflows, and decisions.
Native exists to study that language at scale. To extract intelligence from everyday conversations. And to turn it into Small Language Models that think like your business.
Chat is the Dataset
Conversations are the richest source of real business behavior.
SLMs over LLMs
Smaller, sharper models trained on your reality — faster, cheaper, private.
UX is Intelligence
Interfaces should think, feel, and adapt with you.

Business Learning Models
By Jasminder Singh Gulati, Prashanth Jaganathan, Manas Taneja & Native · ~12 min read
"We propose Business Learning Models (BLMs), a framework for compact, domain-specialized language models designed to function as AI co-founders for enterprise operations. Unlike generic large language models that prioritize breadth, BLMs deliberately specialize on single-organization communication patterns."

How We Research
Observe Conversations
We study how real teams talk and work inside Native.
Extract Patterns
We model workflows, decisions, and habits from chat.
Train & Iterate
We build SLMs that learn continuously from that behavior.
Every message is data. Every decision is signal. Research happens in production.
Native isn't just a product.
It's a live research environment.
Every team using Native contributes to the collective understanding of how businesses think. We don't study behavior in isolation.
We learn from it — in real time. And we turn that learning into better models, better UX, and better intelligence.
The future of AI won't be bigger.
It will be closer to how humans work.
Follow Native as we research and build intelligence that grows from conversation.
