This is the flagship model of the GRaPE 2 family and the largest model I have trained to date, sitting at 27B parameters. It is built on Qwen3.5-27B and trained on a closed-source proprietary dataset, with roughly half of post-training focused on code and the rest split between STEAM subjects and structured logical reasoning. It punches seriously above its weight class.
GRaPE 2 Pro supports multimodal input (image + text) and features 6 thinking modes via the tag. This gives you real control over how hard the model thinks, from skipping the reasoning phase entirely with minimal, all the way up to xtra-Hi for deep, extended thought on hard problems. For most agentic use, auto or low is the move to keep things snappy.
It also runs on consumer hardware. You can get it going with as low as 12GB of VRAM on a quantized build.
If you want to try it out and give feedback, that would be really appreciated. Email us at contact@skinnertopia.com
Experimental global target bits‑per‑weight quantization of Qwen/Qwen3.6-27B and Qwen/Qwen3.6-35B-A3B.
Unlike standard llama.cpp quantizations that rely on fixed type heuristics (e.g., Q4_K_M), the Target BPW approach optimizes per-tensor precision where it matters the most, and produces high quality models that meet a precise global file size target.
Key Advantages: - VRAM Maximization: Can generate high quality models sized exactly to fit hardware constraints (e.g., fitting the model into exactly 24GB VRAM). - Data-Driven Precision: Quantization mix is determined by actual weight error sensitivity rather than hardcoded rules, often yielding better PPL/KLD size trade-offs.
Full benchmarks (PPL, KLD, ARC, GPQA, MMLU, etc.) and methodology in the models' cards.
We are hiring at Shirova AI. We need AI researchers and engineers to work in our research lab. Shirova AI is a research lab in India, so we can help our researchers move to nearby workspaces or let them work from home without ever coming to the lab. We're building our founding team, so the pay will be good. You can learn, so don't hesitate to mail us at: careers@shirova.com
