Tether AI Research presents BotPsy, a 0.8-billion-parameter model built on Qwen3.5-0.8B for on-device function calling and agentic workflows. It targets routine, low-to-medium-difficulty tasks across research, commerce, device control, documents, calendars, email, and messaging, with self-reported tool-use performance at its size.

Provides a concrete example of privacy-conscious task agents that operate without frontier APIs. Its capability-to-compute trade-off informs local assistant workload planning.
