Description
Beam represents Reflection’s inaugural open-weight model, characterized as a sparse Mixture-of-Experts framework featuring a staggering 501 billion parameters, of which 23 billion are actively utilized, specifically crafted for tasks involving coding, reasoning, and agentic functions. Its prowess is derived from extensive pretraining and reinforcement learning, having been developed using a vast dataset of 23.8 trillion diverse, high-quality tokens sourced from the web, public domains, and proprietary licensed materials. With a targeted emphasis on enhancing coding and agentic capabilities, Beam is engineered to provide competitive open-weight performance while ensuring efficient inference compute. This model adeptly handles a wide array of tasks, including intricate software engineering, terminal operations, STEM activities, web searches, tool utilization, and general knowledge inquiries. Reinforcement learning techniques have been employed to bolster its abilities in multi-step reasoning, tool application, and responsiveness to environmental feedback. Moreover, users have the flexibility to manage the balance between efficiency and performance through an adjustable reasoning effort parameter, thus tailoring the model's output to better suit their specific needs.
Description
Inkling-Small is an efficient Mixture-of-Experts transformer model built to provide performance comparable to Inkling while using a much smaller active parameter footprint. The model has 276 billion total parameters and 12 billion active parameters, making it designed for strong capability with more efficient compute usage. Inkling-Small was trained on NVIDIA GB300 NVL72 systems and supports native reasoning across text, images, and audio. It offers context windows of up to one million tokens, making it suitable for long documents, large codebases, multimodal context, and extended agent workflows. Users can set reasoning effort from minimal to extra high to control the balance between speed, cost, compute, and task complexity. The model benefits from improved pre-training data, post-training with on-policy distillation from Inkling, and extended agentic coding reinforcement learning. These improvements helped Inkling-Small surpass its larger counterpart on reasoning and coding benchmarks. Its encoder-free multimodal architecture processes audio as dMel spectrograms and images as 40-by-40-pixel patches alongside text tokens. By combining efficient MoE scaling, long-context reasoning, multimodal input, coding strength, and adjustable thinking effort, Inkling-Small is built for practical high-performance AI deployment.
