Markdown https://www.anchorterminal.com/tools/arete-27b.md · JSON https://www.anchorterminal.com/api/v1/tools/arete-27b.json\n- LFM3-Omni-2B: grade C, 61/100, rank #71 of 160 open-weight models.

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- LFM3-Omni-2B (80): Memory 30, Liquid's Q4_K_M GGUF is 1.10 GB with its 0.29 GB projector file, and 1.39 GB × 1.2 = 1.7 GB, which fits 8 GB, well inside the 16 GB line. Runtimes 10, Released llama.cpp has the lfm3 architecture with the LFM3 vision and audio projectors and speech output (src/models/lfm3.cpp and tools/mtmd at b12242, with a realtime client example), and Ollama's library has an lfm3-omni entry. Builds 15, Liquid's GGUF repository holds Q4_0, Q4_K_M, Q8_0, F16 and BF16 files, and Liquid publishes 4-bit and 8-bit MLX builds and an ONNX repository, all in the LiquidAI organisation. Terms 10, the LFM Open License v1.0, a custom licence that lets anyone use it commercially for free below a threshold of $10M annual revenue. Download 10, the Hub API reports gated false for the model and its GGUF, MLX and ONNX repositories on 10 November 2026, so the files download with no account and nothing to accept. Hosted 5, Liquid's own API lists lfm3-omni-2b among its models, so the publisher hosts it. 30 + 10 + 15 + 10 + 10 + 5 = 80.\n\n### Risk: Arete-27B +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- LFM3-Omni-2B (40): File safety 15, safetensors only, no .bin, .pt or .pth files (25). Provenance 15, files in the LiquidAI organisation, which Liquid's docs page for the model and its blog post link to (10). Safety evaluation 0, no safety results on the card or in Liquid's blog post for the LFM3 family, neither of which mentions safety testing. Agent guidance 0, Nothing on prompt injection, an instruction hierarchy, what refusals cover or safeguards to add. Licence risk 10, 15 less 5 for the $10M annual revenue threshold on commercial use. Security programme 0, no way to report a flaw found. 15 + 15 + 0 + 0 + 10 + 0 = 40.\n\n### Documentation and upkeep: Arete-27B +14\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- LFM3-Omni-2B (49): Model card 14, Intended use (one on-device model in place of separate speech recognition, vision, language and speech models), architecture, parameters (2.17B), context (32K) and the text and speech languages. Training data 5, the card has no training section. Last change 20, the last commit, on 3 November 2026, changed the card's navigation icons, seven days before this check, and the one before it, on 28 October, documented video frame rate and frame limits. Responsiveness 0, none of the 12 discussions that aren't pull requests (27 October to 9 November 2026) has a reply from a LiquidAI member. Version policy 5, LFM3 came out in new repositories and the LFM2.5 models stay in theirs. File health 5, the card gives a 32K context while config.json gives the language model 128,000 positions and Liquid's API lists 128,000 for the hosted model, so the card and the files don't agree on context. 14 + 5 + 20 + 0 + 5 + 5 = 49.\n\n### Agent interface: LFM3-Omni-2B +10\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- LFM3-Omni-2B (70): Chat template 20, chat_template.jinja in the repository (13,513 characters), with roles, images, video and audio, tools, deferred tools and tool results. Tool-calling format 25, the card and Liquid's tool-use page document tools passed through `tools=` in apply_chat_template, calls returned as XML and results sent back as tool messages. Trained tool calling 20, the template loops over every entry in an assistant turn's tool_calls, so several calls fit in one turn, and the card documents tool calling from spoken or written requests. Structured output 0, the card doesn't mention JSON or structured output for this model. Reasoning control 0, the card says this is a non-reasoning model and that `enable_thinking=True` is not supported, so there is no thinking to turn off or budget. Context 5, 32K tokens of input and output per the card. 20 + 25 + 20 + 0 + 0 + 5 = 70.\n\n## Score by category\n\n| Category | Weight | Arete-27B | LFM3-Omni-2B | Edge |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| Capability | 35%, pending | pending | pending | not scored in this run |\n| Reach | 25% (25 this run) | 50 | 80 | LFM3-Omni-2B +30 |\n| Risk | 20% (20 this run) | 55 | 40 | Arete-27B +15 |\n| Agent interface | 10% (10 this run) | 60 | 70 | LFM3-Omni-2B +10 |\n| Documentation and upkeep | 10% (10 this run) | 63 | 49 | Arete-27B +14 |\n| Negative events | ≤15 | 0 | 0 | |\n| **Total** | | **55.1 · C** | **61 · C** | |\n\n## Facts side by side\n\n| Fact | Arete-27B | LFM3-Omni-2B |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| Kind | Open-weight model | Open-weight model |\n| Vendor | Nous Research | Liquid AI |\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 | LFM Open License v1.0 (free commercial use below $10M annual revenue) |\n| Read-only variant documented | no | no |\n| llms.txt | no | yes |\n| Last release | 2026-11-06 | 2026-11-03 |\n| Terms last updated | no document linked | no document linked |\n| Privacy policy last updated | no document linked | no document linked |\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**LFM3-Omni-2B.** One 2.17B model that sees, listens and talks on an 8 GB machine and turns spoken requests into tool calls. Only llama.cpp and Ollama run it in a release. The context is 32K, it doesn't reason, Liquid hasn't answered a question on the repository, and there are no safety results or data sources.\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### LFM3-Omni-2B\n\n1. Start it with `llama-server -hf LiquidAI/LFM3-Omni-2B-GGUF:Q4_K_M --jinja` or `ollama run lfm3-omni`\n2. Greedy decoding for text. For speech use audio_temperature 0.4 and audio_repetition_penalty 1.2, per the card\n3. The context is 32K, and llama.cpp samples video at 2 frames a second up to 384 frames\n4. Parse tool calls yourself from the XML it returns\n5. It doesn't reason, so don't pass enable_thinking\n6. Validate JSON output yourself\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Arete-27B or LFM3-Omni-2B?\n\nLFM3-Omni-2B scores 61 (C) on agent readiness against Arete-27B's 55.1 (C), and leads in 2 of 4 scored categories.
