Best estimate from public evidence; the vendor did not disclose every value. The exact 1017 checkpoint publishes MIT weights, prompt encoding and runnable inference code. Its card describes a minor update to V4.1 Flash and links the family technical report. Size estimates use the family 552B backbone plus 196B Engram memory and 16B active decode (8B prefill), supported by the exact checkpoint MoE/Engram configuration; the 1017 card does not separately restate counts. General multimodal LLM, not a vision specialist. OpenRouter declares none, low, high and max reasoning modes. Seven current providers publish no-training endpoint policies; routing uses existing OpenRouter account guardrails as requested. Fallback release date is the onboarding request date.
