Overview

What this model is.

Sabi-Noema-MLA, released by sabicap, is described as an agentic model built on Qwen3.8-27B and converted to multi-head latent attention (MLA). The conversion shrinks the attention cache to 18 KiB per token (9 KiB with simulated FP8), allowing longer reasoning sessions to run on consumer-grade GPUs.

The model has 27.4 billion parameters, a context window of 262,144 tokens, and is licensed under Apache-2.0. It contains no expert layers and its weight format is not published. With 4-bit weights it can host seven concurrent 32 K-token sessions on a 24 GB GPU, and the attention cache size is 18 KiB per token (9 KiB with FP8).

Memory

How much VRAM the weights need.

Parameter count multiplied by the bytes each format uses. The key-value cache comes on top.

fp825.5 GiB8-bit, near-lossless on most models
int412.7 GiB4-bit, smallest footprint

The cache costs 256 KiB per token at 16-bit, so the full 262,144-token context of one request needs about 64.0 GiB. Concurrency multiplies that number, not the weights.

That figure is an upper bound: this model uses recurrent layers mixed with attention layers, so only some layers keep a cache.

Hardware

Which card runs it.

At the released precision, with 90% of the card given to the server and 2.5 GiB kept for the runtime. The context column is what is left for the cache on that setup.

Questions

The things people ask about this model.

How much GPU memory does sabi-noema-mla need?

The weights take about 51 GiB at the released precision. That fits on one A100 80GB, which leaves roughly 19 GiB for the key-value cache.

What licence does sabi-noema-mla use?

The repository declares apache-2.0. Read the licence text before commercial use: the name alone does not tell you what is allowed.

How long a context does it support?

The configuration allows 262,144 tokens. Whether the whole window is usable depends on the memory left for the cache, which the hardware table works out per card.

Can I use it through an API instead of hosting it?

This page is a reference, and Aiqre does not serve this model today. We deploy open-weight models on dedicated EU hardware on request, so if you want an OpenAI-compatible endpoint for it, email [email protected] with the model name and roughly what volume you expect.
