## Summary
Lemonade has released version 2026.45.3 of its local AI server, which focuses heavily on user interface improvements and backend architectural changes. The update provides a complete redesign of both the desktop application and the web-based user interface to improve local AI management.

This release introduces several new management tools, including a revamped model manager and a visual router policy header. Additionally, the update expands the server's capabilities by adding support for the 2-Horizon model family, ranging from 0.9B to MoVA-36B-A4B, as well as Flint models.

## Technical changes in Lemonade 2026.45.3
- **Backend Architecture:** The HTTP server has been rebuilt using a new route-class architecture to improve request handling.
- **Model Compatibility:** Added support for the 2-Horizon model family (spanning 0.9B to MoVA-36B-A4B) and Flint models.
- **Interface Enhancements:** Implementation of a new model manager, a visual router policy header, and a dedicated mobile web UI.
- **Localization:** The update includes new localization support for the redesigned desktop and web interfaces.

## Why it matters
As an AMD-backed project, Lemonade's improvements to local AI serving help strengthen the open-source alternative to proprietary AI clouds. The new route-class architecture and expanded model support provide developers with more robust tools for running large-scale local inference on consumer hardware.
