Frontier Open Weights

Reflection AI unveils Beam, a 501B open-weight model trained on 10,500 GPUs

Reflection AI introduced Beam, a sparse 501B-parameter mixture-of-experts model with only 23B active parameters, delivering 3-4x better inference efficiency than comparable frontier models. Trained on a cluster of 10,500 NVIDIA GB300 GPUs running 46.4 million sandboxes per day for 28 days, Beam advances coding, reasoning, and agentic task performance with full open-weight release under Apache 2.0 expected later this month.

Free means $0 per token today, not unlimited or unconditional: both platforms rate-limit free use and require a free API key, some OpenRouter free endpoints may train on your prompts unless you opt out in account settings, and the roster changes daily. Verified against each provider's own pricing data at generation time — but pricing changes without notice, so confirm it's still free on the provider's own page before you rely on it.
