Frequently asked questions

Can Fin-R1 be used in a commercial project?

Yes. License: Apache 2.0. It allows commercial use, but it is still worth having a lawyer review the license before launch.

What hardware does Fin-R1 need?

At minimum: Laptop or regular PC, up to 8 GB of VRAM — smaller versions. Without a GPU the model is not practical. You can calculate the exact VRAM for your model size and context in the hardware calculator.

Does Fin-R1 support Russian?

No. The model card lists its languages and Russian is not among them.

Where can I download Fin-R1 and what does it cost?

The Fin-R1 weights are open and free to download. You only pay for the hardware it runs on and for the setup. Source links are at the bottom of this page.
