About Granite Code
We introduce the Granite series of decoder-only code models for code generative tasks (e.g., fixing bugs, explaining code, documenting code), trained with code written in 116 programming languages. A comprehensive evaluation of the Granite Code model family on diverse tasks demonstrates that our models consistently reach state-of-the-art performance among available open source code LLMs.
The key advantages of Granite Code models include:
All-rounder Code LLM: Granite Code models achieve competitive or state-of-the-art performance on different kinds of code-related tasks, including code generation, explanation, fixing, editing, translation, and more. Demonstrating their ability to solve diverse coding tasks.
Trustworthy Enterprise-Grade LLM: All our models are trained on license-permissible data collected following IBM's AI Ethics principles and guided by IBM’s Corporate Legal team for trustworthy enterprise usage.

Muse Ember
Muse Ember is an efficient multimodal AI model developed by Meta for autonomous agents, software engineering, complex reasoning, and high-volume task automation. The model specializes in repetitive agentic operations such as tool calling, code analysis, information extraction, workflow routing, and document processing. It supports text, images, audio, video, and PDF inputs with a one-million-token context window and a maximum output length of 512,000 tokens. Muse Ember can execute multistep business workflows, analyze large software repositories, perform coding tasks, and interpret visual information from documents and screenshots. Its cost-efficient architecture makes it suitable for multi-agent systems in which larger models handle planning while Muse Ember executes frequent subtasks. The model is available through Meta Model API and Muse Code, with API pricing starting at $0.10 per million input tokens and $0.50 per million output tokens.

Claude Sonnet 5.5
Claude Sonnet 5.5 is Anthropic’s mid-tier Claude 5.5 model designed for fast, well-scoped everyday work, coding, and professional document creation. Anthropic says it runs more than 30% faster than Claude Sonnet 5 and typically costs up to 30% less per task while keeping the same base token pricing. The model shows major gains in agentic coding, with a 70.6% score on Terminal-Bench 4.0 and stronger performance on FrontierCode and CursorBench than its predecessor. Sonnet 5.5 also performs strongly on knowledge work, computer use, chart understanding, and long-horizon tasks, in some cases approaching Claude Opus 5.5 at higher effort settings. Anthropic positions it as especially useful for debugging, routine coding, collaboration, and producing polished documents, slides, spreadsheets, and user interfaces. Claude Sonnet 5.5 is available across Anthropic’s platforms as well as AWS, Google Cloud, and Microsoft Azure.

Claude Mythos 5.1
Claude Mythos 5.1 is Anthropic’s newest Mythos-class model, designed for advanced cybersecurity, biology, scientific research, coding, and long-running knowledge work. It is the same underlying model as Claude Fable 5.1 but uses different safeguards: Fable 5.1 is generally available, while Mythos 5.1 is restricted to trusted access programs with safeguards specifically designed for cybersecurity and life sciences research. The model sets a new performance frontier for agentic coding and demonstrates the strongest cyber capabilities of any Anthropic model released to date. In scientific research, Mythos 5.1 can work with specialized tools and complex workflows across molecular design, computational biology, and other technical domains. In Anthropic’s experiments, it designed high-affinity protein binders across multiple targets and achieved its strongest measured hit rate to date. It also optimized seven open-source protein and genomics deep learning models.
