## Verdict

Rendering text as images to reduce token count is a clever hack but fundamentally fights against how multimodal models work — vision tokens are typically more expensive than text tokens, not cheaper, so the core premise is likely flawed. With 4 stars, no community traction, no topics, and a single open issue, there's no signal this solves a real problem at scale. Niche experiment at best; unlikely to break out.
