Highlights of Kamiwaza v0.5.0
App Garden – A new in-platform catalog that allows users to browse, deploy, and manage containerized AI applications in just a few clicks. Each app is packaged with Docker Compose and pre-configured for optimized deployment, giving enterprises and developers a fast start with production-ready components.
Model Deployment Enhancements – Direct integration with Hugging Face Hub provides access to a vast library of open-source models. The platform automatically selects the optimal runtime based on hardware, OS, and model format. It now offers improved vRAM estimation for a wider variety of models, along with interactive, user-viewable logs and continuous health monitoring until models are fully serving traffic.
Novice Mode – A new guided experience that simplifies AI deployment for first-time users. It includes step-by-step tours, a Model Guide that recommends optimal models for the user's hardware, and automatic configuration for tool-calling workflows. Together, these features make it easy to start building and testing agentic AI.
Tool Shed – A unified workspace that connects agents to enterprise APIs, internal systems, and public connectors through built-in Model Context Protocol (MCP) services and a curated set of trusted integrations.
Kaizen Agent Upgrade – Kamiwaza's flagship agent now delivers enhanced reliability and flexibility through the new Model Deployment and Tool Shed frameworks, enabling more capable multimodal and retrieval-augmented workflows.
Full Microsoft Windows and Intel Support – Adds full compatibility for Microsoft Windows through Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL), bringing enterprise-grade AI development to the world's most common desktop platform. Includes optimized installation and runtime support for Intel-powered systems, enabling seamless experimentation and deployment across laptops, workstations, and data-center environments.
"This release shows how far we've come in making distributed AI accessible," said James Urquhart, Field CTO at Kamiwaza AI.
