# 1xe (Onexe)

**1xe (Onexe)** is a Spanish-language assistant focused on Canary Islands speech and cultural context.

This project explores how to adapt a base model to produce more natural, culturally grounded responses in Canary Islands Spanish, combining conversational post-training with optional retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) over curated linguistic and cultural sources.

## What is Onexe

Onexe is a research prototype designed to:

- generate responses in Spanish with a Canary Islands style
- incorporate Canary vocabulary, expressions, and cultural references
- use curated knowledge sources to improve factual and cultural answers

## Official repository

You can find the full codebase, documentation, and development progress on GitHub:

## Project approach

The system is built around two main components:

- **Conversational post-training** to teach the model to respond in a more natural Canary Islands Spanish style
- **Optional RAG** to retrieve context from curated cultural and lexical sources before generating an answer

## Status

Onexe is currently a **research prototype**.
