Capitalizing on the right trend, where everyone wants to run locally and retain ownership of their own data.
JUST IN: Recursive is launching Flint, an open-weight coding model designed to run on your own laptop with 40B total parameters and 2.5B active per token.
Recursive says its optimized engine delivers more than 125 tokens/second on an M4 Pro MacBook Pro.
Recursive says its Eureka Machine helped develop the model by proposing research ideas, implementing them and testing the results. The weights are being released under Apache 2.0.
🤝 Paid partnership
Introducing Flint, @Recursive_SI’s first model: a fast local coding model built with our automated research system, the Eureka Machine.
• Best-in-class fast local coding
• Up to 2x faster than comparable models: 125+ tokens/sec on a MacBook Pro, 150+ on RTX Spark
• Built from scratch in under 4 months
Private, unmetered intelligence on your own machine. Open weights available now on @huggingface, run it locally on your favorite framework or try it for free on @opencode or @pidotdev.
BREAKING PT 2: Justin Mateen will also be joining the board alongside Doug
