3-Model Speculative Decoding
for OpenClaw

2x faster inference on Apple Silicon with zero quality loss

The Challenge

Running LLMs locally is powerful, but slow. Cloud compute is fast, but expensive. What if you could have both?

Slow Inference

Traditional LLM inference on local hardware averages 12.5 tokens/second, limiting real-time applications.

💸

Cloud Costs

Cloud APIs are fast but expensive, especially for continuous or high-volume usage scenarios.

🔧

Complex Setup

Optimizing local models requires deep technical knowledge and custom implementations.

The Solution: Pyramid Speculative Decoding

momo-kibidango implements Google Research's breakthrough 3-model pyramid architecture, achieving 1.97x speedup with zero quality degradation.
