# Models for i
A collection of open-weight language models converted to **big-endian** format so they run natively on **IBM i** (IBM Power) systems.
## Why this exists
Most pretrained model weights are published in little-endian formats. IBM Power hardware running IBM i operates in big-endian mode, so weights have to be byte-swapped before they will load correctly. The models published here have already been converted and validated, removing that step from the deployment path.
## What you'll find
- Big-endian variants of popular open-weight models
- Same architectures, tokenizers, and quantization options as the upstream sources
- Ready to load with common IBM i AI runtimes — no runtime conversion required
## Getting started
Tooling, conversion scripts, and IBM i runtime guidance live in the companion repository:
