About

Inkling 2 Small (also called Inkling Small) is a language model from Thinking Machines Lab. According to creator coverage, it is a mixture-of-experts model with about 594B total parameters and 17B active per token. It scores 31 on the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index and is reported to compete with the larger DeepSeek V4.1 Flash on several benchmarks.

Reported strengths are coding, visual understanding and long-running autonomous tasks, including autonomous AI research. Demos shown by creators include a SimCity-style game and a PC emulator. These claims come from YouTube commentary, not from official documentation provided here.

The model is reported to be available on Tinker, Thinking Machines' platform, with weights planned for release under Apache 2.0 shortly after launch. The exact release date, pricing and repository locations were not confirmed in the provided material, so the open-weights status should be verified once weights are published.
