1/Pretraining is hitting a data wall; scaling raw web data alone leads to diminishing returns. Today @datologyai shares BeyondWeb, our synthetic data approach & all the learnings from scaling it to trillions of tokens🧑🏼🍳 - 3B LLMs beat 8B models🚀 - Pareto frontier for performance

Quality was our top priority. We partnered with @datologyai to ensure that only the highest-quality data was included in training. You can feel the result when talking to AFM; the vibes are good.

Reka Research is our AI agent that scours the web to answer your toughest questions. Ready to unlock its full potential? Learn directly from the team who built it!
The 1948 U.S. Senate race in Texas between Lyndon B. Johnson and Coke Stevenson has to be the most insane political campaign in the history of modern democracy.
Excited to head to #icml25 later this week! If you'd like to chat about anything related to data curation or @datologyai, please reach out. We're hiring across the board to build the best data curation engine possible so that everyone can make the most of their data.
Congratulations to our friends and partners @arcee_ai on the release of AFM-4.5B! With data powered by @datologyai, this model outperforms Gemma3-4B and is competitive with Qwen3-4B despite being trained on a fraction of the data.
