Introducing Inkling 2 Small - Thinking Machines Lab THINKING MACHINES Introducing Inkling 2 Small Nov 5, 2026 Try on Tinker Model card Today we are introducing our second model generation with Inkling 2 Small. It is a Mixture-of-Experts model with 594B total parameters, 17B active, and supports image inputs and variable effort. Inkling 2 Small far surpasses our previous models’ scores on the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index with a score of 31, reflecting gains in performance on agentic coding, vision, knowledge work, and reasoning. The increase in capabilities comes from improvements made at every step of our training process,…
