Ripple-65B Preview
A dense (not MoE) model with 65B parameters, pretrained on 12 trillion tokens, with a context of up to 1 million tokens. It is built for programming and agents: by the authors' own test it scores 80.52 on Terminal-Bench 2.1 and beats much larger American open models (Reflection Beam 501B with 80.1, Meta Muse Spark Open 816B with 76.4, NVIDIA Nemotron 3 Ultra 550B with 56.4). The authors started from the Olmo 3 recipe and claim a 16 to 55 times gain in training efficiency on code. It was designed for NVIDIA graphics cards. BF16 and NVFP4 are published for the instruction-tuned version, plus a BF16 base. This is a preview release, and the figures are the authors' own, not independent.

Frequently asked questions
Can Ripple-65B Preview 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 Ripple-65B Preview need?
At minimum: Server with several GPUs — flagship 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 Ripple-65B Preview support Russian?
The model card does not list languages, so Russian support cannot be promised — it has to be tested on your own examples.
Where can I download Ripple-65B Preview and what does it cost?
The Ripple-65B Preview 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.
How I deploy it for clients
- SelectionI pick the model size for your task and hardware and test it on your examples.
- DeploymentI deploy it on your server or in a closed network and provide an API.
- Fine-tuningI fine-tune it on your data (LoRA) or connect a knowledge base — whichever is cheaper for the task.
- IntegrationI connect it to your CRM, ERP, bot, website or team chat and set up monitoring.

An open model from the American company Reflection with 501B parameters (23B active, a 1 million token context), text only, mainly English. Stated as economical in reasoning: according to the authors it needs about three times fewer tokens for thinking at comparable quality. Strong in programming, tool calling and science. Weights in BF16, FP8 and NVFP4. The benchmark figures are the authors' own.
DetailsCodeFlintRecursive · not statedCommercial use allowedAn open expert model (39.8B parameters, 2.5B active per token) for coding agents: it digs into someone else's repository, fixes bugs, writes functions and tests, and can reason and call tools over several steps. Trained from scratch, 262 thousand token context, text only. It weighs about 80 GB, and the authors run it on a single B300 or H200 card through SGLang. By the authors' own tests: Terminal-Bench 2.1 54.9%, SWE-bench Pro v2 89.7%, SWE-bench Verified 74.2%. Part of the comparisons come from other developers' own reports, and the test conditions differ between sources.
