Specifications

Provider-documented facts. “Not collected” means we have not verified that field yet, not that the feature is unsupported.

Context / input limit
512,000 tokensSource for Context / input limit (opens in a new tab)

Provider writes 512K; displayed using decimal K. No binary-token ceiling is inferred.

Maximum input tokens
Not collected

Not verified for this exact release or deployment. No unrelated sibling specification inherited.

Maximum output
128,000 tokensSource for Maximum output (opens in a new tab)

Provider publishes 128K; decimal K display, not an independently verified binary-token count.

Parameters
35B / 3B activeSource for Parameters (opens in a new tab)

Total/active counts retained exactly as reported; no architecture is inferred from size alone.

Context caching
SupportedSource for Context caching (opens in a new tab)

Provider publishes a discounted cached-input price. TTL, minimum prefix and setup remain unverified.

Release identity
solar-mini4-260922; current documented alias: solar-mini4Source for Release identity (opens in a new tab)

Aliases are endpoint selectors attached to the identified version, not additional independent model records.

Supported reasoning efforts
Off by default; none/minimal disable reasoning; low, medium, high, xhigh and max enable it.Source for Supported reasoning efforts (opens in a new tab)

Visible reasoning uses message.reasoning or delta.reasoning.

Access & pricing

Prices belong to an endpoint and billing tier. A provider listing does not guarantee access for every account or region.

Caching

Caching can reuse earlier input processing. Availability, lifetime and billing depend on the endpoint. A cache hit still generates a new response.

01 / INITIAL INPUTProcess & retain

The system processes eligible input and retains reusable state.

02 / LATER REQUESTCheck available state

Reuse depends on matching input, session state and the cache policy.

03 / CACHE HITReuse & generate

Reusing state can reduce repeated work. Any charges follow the billing rules below.

What the measurements say

No benchmark observations have been added for this model. We do not turn a vendor description into a performance score.

Latency and throughput depend on the host, request size, reasoning settings and load. There is no measured speed or global usage figure in this record.

The record behind the model

Why it is included

Closed-weight distribution inference: the exact commercial release is listed by the provider, while the reviewed official public inventory contains no matching trained weights. Public preview/base weights and tokenizer-only repositories do not establish release of this exact commercial checkpoint.
