The next release, Commonplace 0.4.0, gets Gemma's first word 31% sooner on a Pixel 10, fully offline: 1.86 s → 1.28 s (median, 34 questions). The trick: the CPU and the Tensor NPU no longer take turns. 🧵

Every change in 0.4.0 passes our eval first: the same questions, graded against Claude with web search. No cloud at any step. Your question never leaves the phone.

Every model on Commonplace has to earn its place in our eval. LFM3 and Spark score well on agent benchmarks. Our task is cited answers from a library, and that needs a different skill.

LFM3 got Liquid's official format and sampling. It and Spark score well on agent benchmarks, but our task is cited answers from a library. The long-term plan: fine-tune our own small models on exactly this task. The same eval will decide whether they ship.

Same small model, same 20 questions about events in 2025 and 2026. Without the library: 0 right. With Commonplace's offline library: 19 right. That's from the new benchmark. Here's what I'm building and testing next, plus a few ideas 🧵

One idea for the community token, $COMMONPLACE: reward people who test the app on their own phone, send in device benchmarks, or report bugs on GitHub. The app still never needs the token or a wallet.

One feature I'm proud of is the answer card which appears almost instantly after a prompt is sent without waiting on the LLM. Here is a small video that demonstrates the impact.
Interested in how Commonplace works and what makes it stand out? There is a lot of documentation on the backend on GitHub (just follow the README): github.com/0xPD33/commonplac…
