Liquid AI added LFM2.5-24B-A2B to Hugging Face on Oct 12 2026. It is a 24 B‑parameter MoE model that activates just 2 B parameters per token, making inference cheap and fast. The company says it matches Qwen3.6‑35B‑A3B on agentic and tool‑use benchmarks while running up to 1.7× faster on‑device, reaching 184 tok/s on an Apple M5 Max and over 21 K tok/s on a single NVIDIA B300 GPU.

## The facts

- 24 B total parameters, 2.45 B active (≈2 B per token)
- Scores 48.09 on LiveClaw, beating Qwen3.6‑35B‑A3B’s 38.19

## Why it matters

Developers can run sophisticated reasoning agents locally without cloud costs, enabling faster, private AI tools.
