Granite 4 GGUF

IBM Granite 4 models in GGUF format, for Understand's local AI. Understand serves them with its bundled server, ullama, which is built on llama.cpp.

To choose a model, see Choose a model in Understand's help. It compares every model Understand offers, with SciTools' test results and memory needs, and stays current. This page only lists the files.

File	In Understand	Copied unmodified from
`granite-4.1-3b-UD-Q4_K_XL.gguf`	Granite4.1-3B, the default model	unsloth/granite-4.1-3b-GGUF
`granite-4.1-3b-Q4_0.gguf`	An earlier Granite4.1-3B download, kept for installs that use it	ibm-granite/granite-4.1-3b-GGUF
`granite-4.0-micro-Q4_K_M.gguf`	Not in the model picker	unsloth/granite-4.0-micro-GGUF
`granite-4.0-1b-Q4_K_M.gguf`	Not in the model picker	ibm-granite/granite-4.0-1b-GGUF
