Dataroom – a Pi and self-hosted research harness on low-budget GPU

Dataroom is a self-hosted research harness for low-budget GPUs (like a Raspberry Pi or older NVIDIA cards) that enables AI/ML practitioners to run, manage, and log experiments locally without cloud costs. It is designed for independent researchers, students, and hobbyists who need a lightweight, private alternative to expensive cloud services. Its interest lies in democratizing AI experimentation by proving that meaningful model training and tracking are possible on minimal, affordable hardware.
