# Merlin Research
**Merlin Research** is an independent AI safety and reasoning research organization focused on building practical, auditable, and robust open models.
## Mission
We develop and evaluate models that are:
- Strong in constrained instruction-following
- Safer in real-world agentic workflows
- Better aligned under uncertainty and adversarial prompts
- Transparent in behavior, limits, and deployment risks
## What We Build
- Safety-oriented reasoning models
- Alignment-focused post-training pipelines
- Evaluation suites for robustness, controllability, and failure analysis
- Open artifacts for reproducible research
## Current Focus Areas
- Safety reasoning for small/efficient LLMs
- Misalignment reduction via structured post-training
- Hallucination risk reduction in high-stakes contexts
- Robust instruction adherence with explicit constraints
## Research Principles
1. **Measure behavior, not marketing claims.**
2. **Prioritize reproducibility and clear documentation.**
3. **Publish limitations, not only strengths.**
4. **Design for safe deployment from day one.**
## Models
Our flagship releases are published under this organization with:
- Full model cards
- Clear training/deployment notes
- Practical usage guidance
## Collaboration
We welcome collaboration on:
- AI safety evaluation
- Alignment methods
- Reasoning benchmarks
- Responsible open model deployment
For partnerships or research collaboration, contact us via Hugging Face discussions or linked channels in our repositories.
