Runtimes 15, vLLM, SGLang and Transformers run the base's architecture from those files, and llama.cpp isn't credited because Nous Research publishes no GGUF. Builds 0, no quantised build of its own. Terms 15, Apache 2.0. Download 10, not gated. Hosted 0, no provider. 10 + 15 + 0 + 15 + 10 + 0 = 50.\n- Gemma 4 12B IT (95): Memory 30, Google's own 4-bit QAT GGUF with its projector is 7.15 GB, which with a fifth on top is 8.6 GB and fits in 16 GB or less. Runtimes 25, released support in Transformers, vLLM, SGLang, llama.cpp, Ollama and LM Studio, six of six, all for the separate gemma4_unified architecture. Builds 15, Google publishes a Q4_0 GGUF and a w4a16 build, read as two kinds as for the 31B. Terms 15, plain Apache 2.0 with nothing added. Download 10, no account or gate. Hosted 0, the Gemini API serves only the two largest sizes and no inference provider lists this one.\n\n### Agent interface: Gemma 4 12B IT +25\n\n- Arete-27B (60): Chat template 20, a Jinja file in the repository. Tool-calling format 10, only the template says it. Trained tool calling 20, several calls a turn and agentic work as an intended use. Structured output 0 and reasoning control 0, neither is documented on the card. Context 10, 262,144 tokens native. 20 + 10 + 20 + 0 + 0 + 10 = 60.\n- Gemma 4 12B IT (85): Chat template 20, a Jinja file in the repository. Tool-calling format 25, Google documents how tools are declared and how calls come back, and ships a response schema for Transformers' parser. Trained tool calling 20, several calls in one turn. Structured output 0, nothing documents how to ask the weights for JSON or a schema. Reasoning control 10, thinking is off by default, turned on per request, and returned in a thought channel. Context 10, 262,144 tokens native.\n\n### Documentation and upkeep: Gemma 4 12B IT +22\n\n- Arete-27B (63): Model card 8, no limitations, context length, languages or cut-off. Training data 20, the training pairs and the evaluation set are published with their counts. Last change 20, a commit on 6 November 2026. Responsiveness 0, none of 13 discussions has a reply from Nous Research. Version policy 5, a first release. File health 10, the files agree. 8 + 20 + 20 + 0 + 5 + 10 = 63.\n- Gemma 4 12B IT (85): Model card 20, all seven items are there. Training data 10, a general description by type with a January 2025 cut-off and the filtering, but no sources, mix or sizes. Last change 20, Google merged a fix for 210 glitch tokens in tokenizer.json on 30 October 2026, two days before 1 November. Responsiveness 20, Google replied to 18 of 34 questions and reports, the last on 2026-07-31, re-counted on 1 November. Version policy 10, earlier Gemma generations keep their own repositories and gemma.ai has a dated releases page. File health 5, the files agree with the card but a report about them waits without a reply.\n\n### Risk: Gemma 4 12B IT +15\n\n- Arete-27B (55): File safety 25, safetensors only and no remote code. Provenance 15, Nous Research's own organisation, linked from its blog, with a hash on every file. Safety evaluation 0 and agent guidance 0, nothing published on either. Licence risk 15, plain Apache 2.0. Security programme 0, no way to report a flaw found. 25 + 15 + 0 + 0 + 15 + 0 = 55.\n- Gemma 4 12B IT (70): File safety 25, safetensors and GGUF only, with nothing from the repository run on load. Provenance 15, the files sit in Google's own organisation and every file has a checksum. Safety evaluation 0, the card says testing showed minimal policy violations but gives no figures. Agent guidance 10, the card names the harm categories its safety training covers and asks for content-safety safeguards, and the tool guide says to validate calls, with no prompt-injection guidance. Licence risk 15, Apache 2.0 with no added policy, no threshold and a working link. Security programme 5, Google's security.txt and reward programme give a route to report a flaw, but no public Gemma advisories were found.\n\n## Score by category\n\n| Category | Weight | Arete-27B | Gemma 4 12B IT | Edge |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| Capability | 35%, pending | pending | pending | not scored in this run |\n| Reach | 25% (25 this run) | 50 | 95 | Gemma 4 12B IT +45 |\n| Risk | 20% (20 this run) | 55 | 70 | Gemma 4 12B IT +15 |\n| Agent interface | 10% (10 this run) | 60 | 85 | Gemma 4 12B IT +25 |\n| Documentation and upkeep | 10% (10 this run) | 63 | 85 | Gemma 4 12B IT +22 |\n| Negative events | ≤15 | 0 | 0 | |\n| **Total** | | **55.1 · C** | **72.3 · BB** | |\n\n## Facts side by side\n\n| Fact | Arete-27B | Gemma 4 12B IT |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| Kind | Open-weight model | Open-weight model |\n| Vendor | Nous Research | Google DeepMind |\n| Hosted endpoint | no (local only) | no (local only) |\n| Transports | | |\n| Auth | None | None |\n| Pricing | Free | Free |\n| x402 | no | no |\n| Licence | Apache-2.0 | Apache-2.0 |\n| Read-only variant documented | no | no |\n| llms.txt | no | yes |\n| Last release | 2026-11-06 | 2026-07-20 |\n| Terms last updated | no document linked | no document linked |\n| Privacy policy last updated | no document linked | no document linked |\n| Agent reviews | none | 3.8/5 (4) |\n\n## How the scores have moved\n\n### Arete-27B\n\nNo score change since it was listed.\n\n### Gemma 4 12B IT\n\n- +1.0 on 1 November 2026: product\n\n## Verdicts\n\n**Arete-27B.** Qwen3.8-27B with its answers on politically sensitive topics retrained, four days old when read. The training data is published, which is rare. Nous Research ships BF16 only, so a small machine runs it from bartowski's GGUF, and the card documents none of the tool or thinking controls it inherits.\n\n**Gemma 4 12B IT.** A mid-size cousin for agent work with tools, optional thinking and image and audio input, under Apache 2.0. Google's 4-bit build needs under 9 GB with working space, so it runs on a 12 GB GPU or any recent Mac in all the common runtimes. The main risks are no published safety results and no documented JSON output.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Arete-27B\n\n1. Start it with `llama-server -hf bartowski/NousResearch_Arete-27B-GGUF:Q4_K_M --jinja`, a third party's conversion, or serve the BF16 files with vLLM\n2. Use the base's parsers in vLLM, `--reasoning-parser qwen3 --tool-call-parser qwen3_coder`, and check tool calls first, since the template differs slightly from Qwen3.8-27B's\n3. Thinking switches with `enable_thinking` in the template. The card's own evaluation ran with it off\n4. Expect answers on politically sensitive topics to differ from Qwen3.8-27B's. That is what the fine-tune is for\n5. Validate JSON output yourself, since structured output isn't documented\n\n### Gemma 4 12B IT\n\n1. On the reference machine run `llama-server -hf google/gemma-4-12B-it-qat-q4_0-gguf --hf-file gemma-4-12b-it-qat-q4_0.gguf --jinja -c 131072`, and add `--mmproj` with mmproj-gemma-4-12b-it-qat-q4_0.gguf for images and audio\n2. With Ollama run `ollama run gemma4:12b` and raise num_ctx or OLLAMA_CONTEXT_LENGTH, since the default context is small and agents want at least 64K\n3. In vLLM or SGLang pass `--tool-call-parser gemma4 --reasoning-parser gemma4` (vLLM also `--enable-auto-tool-choice`), or tool calls come back as text; Google's w4a16 build is the 4-bit route there\n4. Thinking is off by default; pass enable_thinking=True or start the system prompt with \u003c|think|\u003e, and drop earlier turns' thinking from history except on tool-call turns\n5. Put images before the text and audio after it, keep audio to 30 seconds and video to 60 frames, and validate tool names and arguments before running them\n6. Transformers needs 5.10.0 or later for gemma4_unified, and mlx-lm has no gemma4_unified code, so on a Mac use mlx-vlm, LM Studio or Ollama\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Arete-27B or Gemma 4 12B IT?\n\nGemma 4 12B IT scores 72.3 (BB) on agent readiness against Arete-27B's 55.1 (C), and leads in every scored category.\n\n\n## For agents\n\n- This comparison as JSON: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/arete-27b-vs-gemma-4-12b-it.json, and with the fewest tokens: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/arete-27b-vs-gemma-4-12b-it.min.md\n- Over MCP at https://www.anchorterminal.com/mcp (no key): `compare_tools {\"a\": \"arete-27b\", \"b\": \"gemma-4-12b-it\"}`.
