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.

About

Mercury 3 is a hosted generative AI model from Inception for developers building interactive applications. It uses a diffusion-based approach to generate text in parallel and supports streaming responses, tool use, structured outputs, and multimodal input including text, images, and audio. Through the Inception API, teams can use it for conversational assistants, voice applications, search and browsing workflows, tutoring, and other agentic tasks that benefit from responsive generation. The model is available through Inception’s API and named inference partners, with OpenAI-compatible API access for existing applications. Developers can evaluate output quality and latency, then integrate the model into their software using the documented API and SDK ecosystem. Usage is token-metered, with a free allocation and paid input/output token rates; enterprise options include dedicated capacity and support.
