Open WeightModel weights are publicly available — can be downloaded and self-hosted

Released April 2026context N/A

A compact, quantized vision-language model that trades some precision for dramatically reduced memory footprint. The 4-bit quantization means it runs on hardware that would struggle with full-precision alternatives, though this compression can introduce subtle degradation in nuanced reasoning tasks. Handles both text and image inputs, making it a multimodal workhorse in a small package.

Glossary

4-bit QuantizationA specific type of quantization that represents model weights using only 4 bits instead of the original 32 bits, enabling very efficient inference on consumer hardware.Full-PrecisionA model using standard 32-bit floating-point numbers to represent weights, providing maximum accuracy but requiring more memory.Language ModelAn AI model trained to predict and generate text by learning patterns from large amounts of written data.Memory FootprintThe amount of RAM or storage space a model requires to run, which is critical for deployment on resource-constrained devices.MultimodalA model that can process and understand multiple types of input, such as both text and images.PrecisionThe level of numerical detail a model uses to represent its internal values; higher precision means more accurate calculations but requires more memory.QuantizationReducing a model's numerical precision (e.g., from 16-bit to 4-bit) to shrink memory usage and speed up inference.QuantizedA technique that reduces a model's size and memory usage by storing weights with lower precision (fewer bits), trading some accuracy for efficiency.ReasoningThe model's ability to work through multi-step logical problems and provide justified answers rather than just pattern-matching.Reasoning TasksProblems that require a model to think through multiple steps logically to arrive at an answer, rather than just pattern-matching.Vision-LanguageA model designed to understand and reason about both visual content (images) and natural language text together.Vision-Language ModelAn AI model that understands both images and text, allowing it to answer questions about images or describe what it sees.
