AI models

The frontier and open-weights models developers are building on — with the specs that actually matter: context window, modalities, licensing and price per token.

Grok 4.6

LFM2.5-VL-3B

Liquid AI

LFM2.5-VL-3B is the multimodal variant of LFM2.5, pairing the LFM2.5-2.6B backbone with a SigLIP2 NaFlex 400M vision encoder. It answers directly rather than reasoning, and adds screen understanding, grounding and function calling for on-device use.

Muse Glimmer 30B

Meta

Muse Glimmer is a 30-billion-parameter causal language model with a dedicated perception encoder, distilled from Muse Spark and purpose-built for autonomous agentic tasks on consumer hardware. The model integrates multi-step reasoning, reliable tool use, multimodal understanding, and failure recovery into a single model that runs locally without requiring cloud infrastructure or network access.

FLUX 3

Black Forest Labs

FLUX 3 is our new multimodal foundation model. It jointly learns from images, videos, and audio within a unified architecture, because what it needs to learn is not any one of these elements in isolation. Instead, a model must learn a representation of the world: how objects hold together, how things move, and how events sound.
