Beam 1.0 501B-A23B
Reflection Beam 1.0 is an Apache 2.0 open-weight 501B-parameter MoE with 23B active parameters and a 1M-token context window. It targets reasoning, coding, agents, and tool use; the base BF16 checkpoint requires distributed server hardware, with separate official FP8 and NVFP4 repositories for reduced-memory deployment.

Similar Models
DeepSeek V4.1 Flash is DeepSeek's MIT-licensed open-weight multimodal MoE for reasoning, coding, agents, and native image understanding. The complete checkpoint is approximately 763B parameters, including a 552B backbone; its Causal Encoder-Decoder architecture activates 8B parameters during input prefill and 16B during output decoding. CSA2 and FP4 KV caching reduce long-context cache cost. The model supports a 1M-token context window and is available through official FP8 weights, the DeepSeek API, and Ollama Cloud. It remains a data-center-class deployment despite the low active-parameter count.
DeepSeek V4.1 Flash 1017 is an updated MIT-licensed 763B-parameter multimodal MoE checkpoint. It keeps the V4.1 family's 1M-token context, coding, reasoning, tool use, and image understanding, while remaining a data-center-class deployment despite activating far fewer parameters per token.
