ixi-sLM: On-Device sLM for AI Call Agent Service

Running an AI call agent on-device makes it private, network-independent, and free of per-query cloud cost, but shipping one as a real-world service imposes constraints a cloud deployment never faces: 1GiB memory budget, in-call latency and thermal limits, static-integer NPU execution, Korean STT input far from sLM pretraining, and cloud-level quality expectations.

Key points

  • A single domain-adapted model runs ixi-O's two production services, AI Call Summary and AI Call Answering, at 94% of a state-of-the-art cloud LLM's task-weighted quality; our on-device modeling carries that quality onto the NPU with only a marginal drop in overall score, in an 803MiB model (28% of FP16) at 23% of the CPU's per-call energy.
