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

Muse Spark Open is an open-weight foundation model developed by Meta to support multimodal reasoning, autonomous agents, and complex software development tasks. The model features 816 billion total parameters with approximately 42 billion active parameters and a context window supporting up to one million tokens. Its architecture is designed to process multimodal information while maintaining context across lengthy workflows, extensive codebases, and multistep assignments. Muse Spark Open provides capabilities for software engineering, code generation, debugging, application development, and automated testing. Its agentic functionality supports external tool interactions, task planning, computer-based workflows, and execution of complex objectives over extended sessions. The model can run locally using two Apple M5 Ultra Mac Studio systems with the MLX framework, enabling organizations to process information without relying on hosted inference services. Developers can deploy the model through SGLang, vLLM, TensorRT-LLM, Hugging Face Transformers, llama.cpp, and other supported inference engines. Customization is supported through PyTorch and TorchTitan, allowing organizations to adapt the model to specialized applications and workflows. Muse Spark Open is distributed under the Muse Model License and is available through Hugging Face, major cloud model repositories, and hosted API providers including Together AI, Fireworks AI, and OpenRouter.
