What is Phi-4?

Phi-4 is an innovative small language model (SLM) with 14 billion parameters, demonstrating remarkable proficiency in complex reasoning tasks, especially in the realm of mathematics, in addition to standard language processing capabilities. Being the latest member of the Phi series of small language models, Phi-4 exemplifies the strides we can make as we push the horizons of SLM technology. Currently, it is available on Azure AI Foundry under a Microsoft Research License Agreement (MSRLA) and will soon be launched on Hugging Face. With significant enhancements in methodologies, including the use of high-quality synthetic datasets and meticulous curation of organic data, Phi-4 outperforms both similar and larger models in mathematical reasoning challenges. This model not only showcases the continuous development of language models but also underscores the important relationship between the size of a model and the quality of its outputs. As we forge ahead in innovation, Phi-4 serves as a powerful example of our dedication to advancing the capabilities of small language models, revealing both the opportunities and challenges that lie ahead in this field. Moreover, the potential applications of Phi-4 could significantly impact various domains requiring sophisticated reasoning and language comprehension.

What is Inkling-Small?

Inkling-Small is an efficient multimodal AI model built to deliver strong reasoning and coding performance at a fraction of Inkling’s size. It is a Mixture-of-Experts transformer with 276 billion total parameters and 12 billion active parameters. The model was trained on NVIDIA GB300 NVL72 systems and is designed to combine high capability with more efficient inference. Inkling-Small supports native reasoning across text, images, and audio, allowing it to work across multimodal tasks without relying on separate encoders. Its context window supports up to one million tokens, making it useful for long-form reasoning, large-scale code understanding, document analysis, and agentic workflows. Users can adjust reasoning effort from minimal to extra high depending on whether they need faster responses or deeper computation. The model’s training process includes improved pre-training data, post-training with on-policy distillation from Inkling, and extended agentic coding reinforcement learning. These techniques helped Inkling-Small outperform its larger counterpart on reasoning and coding benchmarks. The model performs well in coding and tool-use harnesses and exceeds 80% on SWE-bench Verified. Its encoder-free architecture processes audio as dMel spectrograms and images as 40-by-40-pixel patches alongside text tokens. By combining efficient MoE design, one-million-token context, adjustable reasoning effort, multimodal processing, coding strength, and tool-use performance, Inkling-Small is designed for developers and teams that need capable AI with lower active compute requirements.
