Marin (framework)

Stanford CRFM

Open framework for reproducible foundation-model development that tracks every step from raw data to final model: data curation, transformation, filtering, tokenization, training, evaluation, and experiment/mixture orchestration. Distinct from the Marin model it produces.

Stanford CRFM / Marin community framework (marin-community/marin), distinct from the Marin model artifact on HF. Contains no weights; produces the Marin 8B model. Verified 2026-08-13 via the GitHub README and the LICENSE body.

Adoption

2 medium confidence
2.0

1,261 GitHub stars on marin-community/marin, read from the repository API, which bands at 1K-10K stars, level 2 on the stars fallback scale. That scale caps at level 3, because a star is not a use. Adoption is concentrated around the Marin project itself rather than broad external use, and no package is published.

Capability

4 medium confidence
4.0

A broad end-to-end framework; what limits it is how widely it is used, not what it can do.
