Liquid LFM 40B strikes a unique balance between model size and output quality. With 12 billion activated parameters, it delivers performance comparable to larger models while its MoE architecture ensures higher throughput and cost-efficient deployment on accessible hardware.
The model excels in areas such as general and expert knowledge, mathematics, logical reasoning, and long-context tasks. Its primary language is English, but it also demonstrates multilingual capabilities in Spanish, French, German, Chinese, Arabic, Japanese, and Korean.
However, certain limitations exist. The model may struggle with precise numerical calculations, time-sensitive information, or unconventional tasks like counting specific letters in a word. Human preference optimization techniques have yet to be fully implemented, leaving room for further enhancement.
This product is specifically optimized for peak performance on L40S GPUs.
Highlights
**Innovative Model Architecture**: Liquid AI's Foundation Models utilize a unique architecture that combines liquid neural networks and non-transformer designs, allowing these models to be efficient in memory usage and capable of handling sequential data, such as text, video, and real-time signals. This setup optimizes performance while minimizing computational demands.
**Enhanced Adaptability and Real-Time Learning**: Unlike conventional models, LFMs can adapt their internal processes based on new inputs in real time, making them highly responsive.
**Efficiency in Long-Context Processing**: Liquid AI's models can efficiently process extended input sequences without the steep memory and processing requirements typical of transformer-based models, supporting applications like document summarization and complex chatbot interactions with minimal hardware demands. With LFMs, it’s possible to fit up to 1 million tokens-worth of data and map it onto 16 gigabytes of memory. **

You pay by the hour based on the compute instance you run the model on, with no upfront commitment. Two options are available, each tied to a different instance type and inference style. One runs batch inference on the ml.g4dn.12xlarge instance, which processes grouped requests. The other runs real-time inference on the ml.g6e.12xlarge instance, which handles live requests as they arrive. You choose the instance and mode that fit your workload. Costs scale with the number of host hours you use on the selected instance.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
What am I actually paying for with each host hour on these instances?
You pay for each hour the chosen GPU instance runs the model. One host hour equals one hour of one running instance. The ml.g4dn.12xlarge and ml.g6e.12xlarge are AWS GPU compute types. Meter time starts when the instance runs, regardless of how many requests it serves.
How does the batch inference option differ from the real-time option for my bill?
The ml.g4dn.12xlarge batch option processes grouped requests together, which suits high-volume jobs run in scheduled runs. The ml.g6e.12xlarge real-time option handles live requests as they arrive, which suits interactive or low-latency use. Both meter by running host hours, so cost tracks how long each instance stays active.
Am I charged when the instance is stopped or sitting idle?
Charges accrue per running host hour on the selected instance. If you stop the instance, software host-hour charges stop. An idle but running instance still meters time, since billing tracks running hours rather than request volume. Underlying AWS storage or other resource fees may still apply separately.

An Amazon SageMaker model package is a pre-trained machine learning model ready to use without additional training. Use the model package to create a model on Amazon SageMaker for real-time inference or batch processing. Amazon SageMaker is a fully managed platform for building, training, and deploying machine learning models at scale.
Deploy the model on Amazon SageMaker AI using the following options:
Real-time inference
Deploy the model as an API endpoint for your applications. When you send data to the endpoint, SageMaker processes it and returns results by API response. The endpoint runs continuously until you delete it. You're billed for software and SageMaker infrastructure costs while the endpoint runs. AWS Marketplace models don't support Amazon SageMaker Asynchronous Inference. For more information, see Deploy models for real-time inference .
Batch transform
Deploy the model to process batches of data stored in Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3). SageMaker runs the job, processes your data, and returns results to Amazon S3. When complete, SageMaker stops the model. You're billed for software and SageMaker infrastructure costs only during the batch job. Duration depends on your model, instance type, and dataset size. AWS Marketplace models don't support Amazon SageMaker Asynchronous Inference. For more information, see Batch transform for inference with Amazon SageMaker AI .
