## Look inside the run
|
| 23 |
|
|
|
|
| 24 |
- **Flow Map:** inspect measured connections between layers and experts for different input domains.
|
| 25 |
- **Representation structure:** observe how activation variation concentrates and how dominant directions move.
|
| 26 |
- **Expert routing:** compare which subjects reach which experts, separately for each layer.
|
| 27 |
- **Domain interaction:** inspect sharing and training-gradient agreement alongside loss and task results.
|
| 28 |
|
|
|
|
| 29 |
## Capture. Record. Inspect.
|
| 30 |
|
|
|
|
| 31 |
The tracker captures measurements using consistent probe inputs. A self-contained **.iris** file records the run. The local **Bench** reads that growing record during training and opens it afterward without loading the model.
|
| 32 |
|
|
|
|
| 33 |
Each graph has an Explain guide. Teams can define labeled scalar signals, derive formulas from captured channels, and export custom charts.

## Work in your own environment
|
| 42 |
|
|
|
|
| 43 |
IRIS fits existing PyTorch training loops, with capture and inspection on CPU, Apple MPS, or NVIDIA CUDA. Coverage depends on model layout; shared-weight configurations are currently unsupported.
|
| 44 |
|
|
|
|
| 45 |
Model weights, activations, and probe text are not sent to Saccadic. Licensing and metering contact Saccadic. Optional configured relays send selected scalar measurements to existing experiment trackers.
|
| 46 |
|
|
|
|

## One model. One run. One concrete investigation.

We welcome research and joint evaluations. Academic researchers can request credit grants; requests are reviewed individually. See the public product site for availability and licensing terms.

*Figure 10.1. A snapshot during training at step 49,300. Green links show mechanics; orange links show arithmetic. Line thickness represents measured signal, and expert circles are sized by traffic share. This is a static image of the IRIS Flow Map.*
|
| 51 |
+
|
| 52 |
+
The map provides an internal view alongside the accuracy curves: which experts carry each domain’s measured signal, where paths overlap, and how traffic is distributed across layers. Revisit these measurements across the recorded run to inspect how the patterns change.
