Liquid LFM 40B strikes a unique balance between model size and output quality. With 12 billion activated parameters, it delivers performance comparable to larger models while its MoE architecture ensures higher throughput and cost-efficient deployment on accessible hardware.
The model excels in areas such as general and expert knowledge, mathematics, logical reasoning, and long-context tasks. Its primary language is English, but it also demonstrates multilingual capabilities in Spanish, French, German, Chinese, Arabic, Japanese, and Korean.
However, certain limitations exist. The model may struggle with precise numerical calculations, time-sensitive information, or unconventional tasks like counting specific letters in a word. Human preference optimization techniques have yet to be fully implemented, leaving room for further enhancement.
This product is specifically optimized for peak performance on H100 GPUs.
Highlights
**Innovative Model Architecture**: Liquid AI's Foundation Models utilize a unique architecture that combines liquid neural networks and non-transformer designs, allowing these models to be efficient in memory usage and capable of handling sequential data, such as text, video, and real-time signals. This setup optimizes performance while minimizing computational demands.
**Enhanced Adaptability and Real-Time Learning**: Unlike conventional models, LFMs can adapt their internal processes based on new inputs in real time, making them highly responsive.
**Efficiency in Long-Context Processing**: Liquid AI's models can efficiently process extended input sequences without the steep memory and processing requirements typical of transformer-based models, supporting applications like document summarization and complex chatbot interactions with minimal hardware demands. With LFMs, it’s possible to fit up to 1 million tokens-worth of data and map it onto 16 gigabytes of memory. **
AWS Marketplace now accepts line of credit payments through the PNC Vendor Finance program. This program is available to select AWS customers in the US, excluding NV, NC, ND, TN, & VT.
You pay by the hour based on the AWS instance type you run the LFM 40B model on. Two options are available. The first runs inference on the ml.g4dn.12xlarge instance in batch mode, which processes requests in groups. The second runs inference on the ml.p5.48xlarge instance in real-time mode, which handles requests as they arrive. Each option bills per host hour, so cost scales with how long you keep the instance running. Your choice depends on whether you need batch processing or live responses and which hardware fits your workload.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
What am I charged for when the instance sits idle but is not powered off?
Billing runs per host hour for as long as the instance is running. An idle but running instance still accrues host-hour charges. Only stopping or terminating the instance ends software billing. Underlying AWS storage or other resource fees may still apply while the instance exists.
How does batch mode on the ml.g4dn.12xlarge differ from real-time mode on the ml.p5.48xlarge for my bill?
Both bill per host hour. Batch mode processes requests in groups, which suits high-volume jobs where responses do not need to be instant. Real-time mode handles requests as they arrive, which suits live applications needing low latency. Your workload type and chosen hardware determine which instance you run.
Does the host-hour charge cover any usage limits, such as tokens or requests?
No token or request caps apply. You pay for the instance running time, not for the number of tokens or requests processed. The 40B model uses a Mixture of Experts design with 12B activated parameters, so throughput depends on the instance hardware you select, not on a metered request count.

An Amazon SageMaker model package is a pre-trained machine learning model ready to use without additional training. Use the model package to create a model on Amazon SageMaker for real-time inference or batch processing. Amazon SageMaker is a fully managed platform for building, training, and deploying machine learning models at scale.
Deploy the model on Amazon SageMaker AI using the following options:
Real-time inference
Deploy the model as an API endpoint for your applications. When you send data to the endpoint, SageMaker processes it and returns results by API response. The endpoint runs continuously until you delete it. You're billed for software and SageMaker infrastructure costs while the endpoint runs. AWS Marketplace models don't support Amazon SageMaker Asynchronous Inference. For more information, see Deploy models for real-time inference .
Batch transform
Deploy the model to process batches of data stored in Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3). SageMaker runs the job, processes your data, and returns results to Amazon S3. When complete, SageMaker stops the model. You're billed for software and SageMaker infrastructure costs only during the batch job. Duration depends on your model, instance type, and dataset size. AWS Marketplace models don't support Amazon SageMaker Asynchronous Inference. For more information, see Batch transform for inference with Amazon SageMaker AI .
