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.

Description

Laguna S 2.1 is an advanced open weight coding model that emphasizes long-term project completion and efficient reasoning capabilities. Featuring a 118-billion-parameter Mixture-of-Experts architecture, it activates 8 billion parameters for each token and accommodates a context window of up to one million tokens in both thinking and non-thinking modes. The model’s streamlined active size allows it to perform intricate tasks on local machines while still competing favorably against significantly larger models across various benchmarks, including terminal usage, software engineering, codebase question answering, and tool utilization. Designed for resilience, Laguna S 2.1 excels in tackling challenging assignments with enhanced persistence, meticulous verification, and a readiness to backtrack rather than prematurely claim success. In practical applications, it has successfully created and validated a browser rendering engine from scratch, optimized an agent harness for improved execution speed and reduced memory usage, and conducted extensive mathematical research using the available tools within its environment, demonstrating its versatility and effectiveness. This combination of features positions Laguna S 2.1 as a powerful tool for developers seeking innovative solutions.
