Institute of Foundation ModelsOpen WeightsPending Human Review

K2 Horizon is the Institute of Foundation Models’ open language-model fleet spanning 0.9B, 3.7B, 7B, 32B, 36B-A4B, and 375B-A23B tiers. The release combines dense and sparse models, including the 36B tier’s Mixture-of-Value-Attention design, for reasoning, mathematics, coding, and agents. Apache-licensed models and code are accompanied by intermediate checkpoints, training data or construction recipes, configurations, logs, and evaluations. Context differs by training stage: the documented 7B and 32B final views support 512K, while earlier base and midtraining checkpoints have smaller limits. Tier names describe core model sizes and may differ from all-parameter repository totals.
