I'm the co-founder and CTO of Wandero, a production-ready multi-agent system that powers automation for nearly 100 travel agencies, handling thousands of real-world requests every day. I also co-founded Tbilisi AI Lab in 2023—a small research team focused on building large language models for Georgian, one of the world’s most under-resourced languages. With a team of just four people, we built everything from scratch: we collected and cleaned 20B tokens for pretraining, 5M instruction pairs, and 0.5M DPO pairs, and trained a 12B parameter model that remains the best-performing LLM for Georgian. We also developed translation and embedding models that are SOTA in the language. After two years of focused work, we’re now preparing to open source the entire suite of models.
