OLMoE Instruct

Allen Institute for AI
open source / Overall score: 2.0

Ai2's fully open mixture-of-experts instruct model, with roughly 1 billion active parameters out of 6.9 billion total, post-trained with supervised fine-tuning and DPO. It was released with its pretraining data, post-training data, training code, logs and 244 intermediate checkpoints.

A fully open mixture-of-experts model: Apache-2.0 weights, open pretraining data, open post-training data, open training code and 244 intermediate checkpoints.

Adoption

2 high confidence
2.0

Adoption is measured as Hugging Face downloads summed across the two declared OLMoE artifacts, the instruct model and its pretraining mixture dataset. Nearly all of that volume goes to the model itself rather than to the dataset download.

Capability

2 medium confidence
2.0

The model card calls it state-of-the-art among models of similar cost, about 1B active parameters, and its own comparison table puts it ahead of OLMo-7B, DeepSeek-3B-16B and Qwen1.5-3B-14B chat models on average score. Its small active-parameter budget keeps it well below full-size current chat models on absolute capability.
