Tommy Xaypanya
CTO & Co-Founder
Tommy is building the privacy-first edge AI platform at Thox.ai. He leads all technical development including the Thox.ai 1.0 carrier board, ThoxOS (written from scratch in Rust), MagStack magnetic clustering technology, and a 25-invention patent portfolio.
Tommy's technical scope spans the full AI model pipeline including TensorRT-LLM, Ollama, and on-device quantization, as well as OEM/ODM manufacturing engagement with NVIDIA Elite Partners. He leads development of ThoxSDK (Rust + Zig), the ThoxModels registry, and ThoxQu quantum co-processor R&D, shipping hardware and software that keeps AI local with no cloud dependency and full user sovereignty.
