Thinking Machines: Inkling 2 Small (free)

Inkling 2 Small is a multimodal mixture-of-experts reasoning model from Thinking Machines Lab, with 17B active parameters out of 594B total. It is the first model in the second Inkling generation. It was trained with reinforcement learning on long-horizon coding tasks across many agent harnesses, and is suited for agentic coding, autonomous research, agentic knowledge work and retrieval-augmented generation, with English and general multilingual support. It accepts text and image input (no audio), supports tool calling and variable reasoning effort, and has a 1M-token context window.

Inkling Small is an open-weight multimodal mixture-of-experts model from Thinking Machines Lab, with 12B active parameters out of 276B total. It is positioned as the smaller, more efficient member of the Inkling family and is suited for reasoning, coding, agentic workflows, retrieval-augmented generation, instruction following, and multilingual conversation.
