Zaylo — Local AI Server

loftytechlabs — Sat, 12 Sep 2026 04:36:11 +0000

Turn your existing hardware into your own private AI server.

Zaylo is a local AI server built by LoftyTech Labs that makes it easier to run AI models on your own hardware without relying entirely on external AI services.

Features

Hardware Detection — Understand your system and available resources.
Model Recommendations — Find models that fit your hardware.
Local Inference — Run AI models directly on your machine.
OpenAI-Compatible API — Integrate local models using a familiar API.
Network Access — Access your local AI server across your network.
Monitoring — Monitor and manage your local AI environment from one place.

Why Zaylo?

Running AI locally can involve configuring runtimes, selecting compatible models, managing inference, and exposing APIs.

Zaylo brings these pieces together into a single local AI server, making self-hosted AI easier to set up and use.

Get Zaylo

Zaylo is open source and available on GitHub.

Clone the repository, run Zaylo on your own hardware, and start experimenting with local AI.

Your hardware. Your models. Your AI.

Daxon: Bringing a Complete Data Intelligence Workspace Into VS Code

loftytechlabs — Sat, 12 Sep 2026 04:28:27 +0000

What if your data tools lived where you already write your code?

We built Daxon to answer exactly that.

Daxon is an all-in-one Data Intelligence & SQL platform built natively inside VS Code, bringing database exploration, visualization, analytics, and data workflows directly into the developer environment.

Instead of constantly switching between VS Code, database clients, BI tools, and visualization platforms, Daxon brings these workflows together in one place.

What is Daxon?

Daxon combines the capabilities developers and data teams typically spread across multiple tools:

🗄️ Multi-database connectivity — Connect to and work with different database systems directly from VS Code.
🔍 Data exploration — Inspect schemas, tables, columns, relationships, and data without leaving your editor.
🧩 Interactive ER diagrams — Visually understand database architecture and explore relationships between entities.
📊 Data visualization & dashboards — Turn data into interactive charts and dashboards.
⚙️ Data workflows & pipelines — Build and manage automated data workflows alongside your development environment.
💻 Developer-first experience — Designed around the VS Code ecosystem rather than as a separate desktop application.

Why We Built It

Modern development often involves a frustrating amount of context switching.

Write code in VS Code → open a database client → inspect data → move to a BI platform → build a visualization → return to the codebase.

We wanted to eliminate that fragmentation.

Daxon brings the data layer closer to the code.

The goal isn't simply to build another database client. It's to create a unified workspace where developers can connect, understand, query, visualize, analyze, and work with data without leaving VS Code.

🚀 Get Daxon

Daxon is available now as a VS Code extension.

You can install it directly from the VS Code Extensions Marketplace:

Open VS Code
Open the Extensions panel
Search for Daxon
Install the Daxon extension
Start working with your data directly inside VS Code

Search Daxon in VS Code Extensions and start building.

Built by LoftyTech Labs

Daxon is developed by LoftyTech Labs, a technology lab focused on building developer-first tools and software that solve practical engineering problems.

We explore the intersection of:

Developer tooling
Data engineering
AI/ML
Visualization
Software infrastructure

Daxon is one step toward that vision.

What's Next?

Daxon is actively evolving, with the goal of becoming a serious data workspace for developers rather than just another VS Code extension.

We're continuing to expand its database capabilities, visualization, analytics, workflow automation, and overall developer experience.

Code. Data. Intelligence. One workspace.
