VISS.AI is pleased to announce the launch of SWE-LLM, the largest and most advanced language model in Swedish. SWE-LLM represents a breakthrough in Swedish language technology and open new possibilities for both the private and public sectors.

"Despite very limited resources, we have created a model that competes with world-leading AI companies in Swedish text generation. We want Sweden to become a leading player in the AI market, not a follower. Our ambition is to be a powerful resource to make this journey possible," says Philip Alm, CEO of VISS.AI. "We hope this opens up eyes to what is possible," Philip continues.

About SWE-LLM

SWE-LLM is a fine-tuned version of Llama 3 70B, trained on a carefully curated dataset consisting of over 12,700 Swedish texts, corresponding to over 13.3 million tokens. The model has been trained on A100 GPUs and is now available for the public to test for free at https://swe-llm.se/.

• High-quality Swedish texts: SWE-LLM is trained to write in national Swedish, so called “rikssvenska”, and can produce texts with excellent grammar and style. The model is particularly skilled at writing articles, technical reports, and various types of content.

• Broad text competence: The model has been trained on over 250 different types of texts, from news articles to creative texts.

• User-friendly chat model: Thanks to training on conversational data, the model is easy to converse with and ideal for use in various chat applications.

Use Cases

SWE-LLM is created for companies and organizations that need:

• Automated content production in correct Swedish

• Advanced text analysis and sentiment analysis of Swedish text

• Improved customer service through chatbots and virtual assistants

• Efficient translation of content into Swedish

"SWE-LLM represents a breakthrough for Swedish AI. Its deep understanding of our language opens innovative solutions in everything from media production to public administration," says Fredric Lundberg, CTO at VISS.AI. "[SWE-LLM] allows us to work in Swedish on problems that previously needed to be solved in English," Fredric continues.

The Future of Swedish AI

VISS.AI plans to develop large language models in specific areas that can compete with American AI players such as Anthropic and OpenAI. At the top of the list are AI models that are better at decision-making and can communicate with applications. The company believes these models are critical for creating value and being applicable in today's industry.

"We see a strong need in the industry for models that can communicate with applications. Therefore, we are developing models for AI agents that can quickly learn to communicate with existing applications, making them usable in larger workflows," says Philip Alm, CEO of VISS.AI. "For Sweden to become a world leader in AI, we need to be able to create our own models. We see SWE-LLM as a first step towards creating Swedish AI that can compete with the giants," Philip continues.
