About

Bonsai 27B is the new multimodal flagship of the Bonsai family and the first 27B-class model to run on a phone. Based on Qwen3.6 27B, it brings a new capability tier to local devices: multi-step reasoning, structured tool calls, vision tasks, and computer-use agentic loops that stay coherent across many steps. Bonsai 27B comes in two variants. Ternary Bonsai 27B uses ternary weights with FP16 group-wise scaling, giving 1.71 effective bits per weight and a 5.9 GB footprint for the quality-oriented laptop-class version. 1-bit Bonsai 27B uses binary weights with the same group-wise scaling, giving 1.125 effective bits per weight and a 3.9 GB footprint that fits within the memory budget of an iPhone 17 Pro. Both variants run end-to-end across the language network, embeddings, attention, MLPs, and LM head with no higher-precision escape hatches. They are multimodal, with a compact 4-bit vision tower, so on-device workflows can understand screenshots, documents, and camera input.

About

Inkling is an open-weights multimodal AI model from Thinking Machines designed as a customizable foundation model for developers, researchers, and enterprises. The model is a Mixture-of-Experts transformer with 975 billion total parameters, 41 billion active parameters, and support for context windows up to 1 million tokens. Inkling was trained from scratch on text, images, audio, and video, giving it native capabilities across reasoning, coding, agentic tool use, vision, audio, factuality, and instruction following. It is built with controllable thinking effort so users can balance performance, latency, and token efficiency for different workloads. The model is available for fine-tuning on Tinker, with playground access, API availability through ecosystem partners, and full weights published on Hugging Face. Built for customization, Inkling gives teams an open-weights base model for building domain-specific AI systems, multimodal agents, coding workflows, research tools, and more.
