LFM2.5-2.6B
Liquid AI, a small AI company, made this small model for building helpers that read documents and pull out information. It is light enough to run on everyday devices.

The details
A compact 2.6B-size Reasoning model: A model that thinks step by step before answering. Slower, but much better at maths, code and tricky questions. from Liquid AI, aimed at Agent: An AI that doesn't just answer but takes steps on its own to finish a task: searching the web, running code or using apps. workflows, data extraction, retrieval-augmented search and long documents. Liquid advises against using it for agentic coding.
Model ID: The exact name developers type to use a model, like gpt-5-mini. New IDs often show up in a lab's systems before the official announcement, which is how trckr spots many releases early.
