Liquid AI releases multimodal d1 decision models for edge devices

Liquid AI now offers both downloadable d1 decision weights and the hosted multimodal d1-ultra API. d1-ultra returns fixed-choice probabilities for text and image decisions at $0.042 per million input tokens with no output-token charge. Vendor evaluations across 112 tasks report gains over Jev 1.14; independent results are not yet available.

What this means for you

For routing, moderation and edge inspection, a compact model can move structured decisions off the generative path and reduce latency. The benchmarks are vendor-run, the custom LFM license needs review and trust_remote_code expands the execution boundary.
