Hi X 👋 We're AlphaEdge, a French AI deeptech based in Angers. We design our own models from the ground up: compact, specialized, and built to run where your data lives (sovereign cloud, your own servers, or on-device). A quick thread on who we are and what's coming 🧵

Mercredi 28/10, à 11h, nous décortiquerons en direct un dossier KYB complexe avec Evarist. Un groupe fictif à trois pays : holding luxembourgeoise, filiale française, actionnaire suisse… et un bénéficiaire effectif qui n’apparaît dans aucun registre 👇

👀 Three OCR APIs, one complex table, focus on section IV: • DeepSeek: 35+s, only partly reproduced & filled. • Mistral: 3.98s, structure not fully preserved. • AlphaDigitMax v2: 5.9s, table reproduced & filled + reliability score. More tests soon. 🤗

SOTA sparse retrieval, now in French. We’re releasing Sparseup-fr-v0 on Hugging Face, our second open-source release this year.

On a cleaned NanoBEIR-fr (13 datasets): 56.37 average, the best of the open-source French sparse embedding models we evaluated. Best on 8 of 13 datasets, +7.9 points over BM25.

It’s a V0: our Lead Data Scientist @BdsLoick replicated @Linkup_platform’s recipe, built on @LightOnIO's work, to check it transfers to French. It does. A new version is already in the works. Model, benchmark and blog post: huggingface.co/alphaedge-ai/…

Yesterday was about the top score. Today, the bigger picture: all three AlphaDigit v2 models land in the top 5 of olmOCR-Bench. Even our lightest, AlphaDigitFast v2, passes 83.0% of tests, ahead of 5 of the 7 other systems evaluated. Full thread ↓
Our OCR model AlphaDigitMax v2 scores 89.4% on olmOCR-Bench (@allen_ai): the best overall score among the 10 systems we evaluated, ahead of Chandra (86.9%) and Mistral OCR (83.8%). All three AlphaDigit v2 models rank in the top 5 🧵

Method, same rules for everyone: one pass per page, same judge, same normalization, local models on a single RTX PRO 6000. We audited the test set and fixed impossible tests (expected values only). Several are tests our own models still fail.

We showed it on speech earlier this year: AlphaAudio v0 ranked #1 on CommonVoice (French), ahead of Voxtral Transcribe v2, while running 5x faster than Whisper Large v3. Tomorrow, it's documents' turn. ♟️

📄 Tomorrow: we publish the evaluation of our OCR models, AlphaDigit v2, on a public benchmark: protocol, results by category, and our limits. Want to see it first? Our Discord gets it before anyone else 👇 discord.gg/zHW6aWFve
