Liquid AI LFM3

LFM3 is Liquid AI's new family of small models built for local agents, tool calling, and structured output, on Liquid's new tri-hybrid architecture. The family includes:

  • lfm3: a 1.7B text model with a 256K-token context window
  • lfm3-vl: adds image understanding
  • lfm3-audio: speech recognition, translation, and text-to-speech in 18 languages
  • lfm3-omni: text, images, and audio in one model
ollama run lfm3

d1 decision models

Liquid AI's d1 models now come in a 2B size, built on LFM3. d1 makes decisions about text and images, and d1-omni adds audio.

ollama run d1:2b "I was charged twice for order 4417." --ask "Is this a billing issue?"

Note: lfm3 and d1 2b are supported on Apple hardware in this release. Support for Linux/Windows coming soon.
