Tiny Aya Thinker

CohereOpen WeightsPending Human Review

Tiny Aya Thinker is Cohere Labs’ 3.35B multilingual reasoning research release, published with the Building Multilingual Bridges paper. L2-Thinker produces reasoning in the user’s language across 60 languages, while En-Thinker provides an English-reasoning comparison. The models build on a 32K Tiny Aya base checkpoint. Downloadable research weights and a public demonstration support multilingual reasoning experiments. The paper publication precedes the October 5 explanatory blog; that later blog is not the first release.
