--- ### 🌟 About danAI (*دانا - Wise / Intelligent*) **danAI-55M-Reasoning** is an ultra-compact **54.5 Million parameter Small Language Model (SLM)** designed from the ground up to bring high-grade reasoning, instruction following, and autonomous agentic capabilities to low-power edge hardware, mobile processors, and IoT devices in an ultra-low **13 MB to 104 MB memory footprint**. Named after the Urdu word ***Dānā (دانا)*** meaning *wise* or *intelligent*, **danAI** proves that extreme efficiency and agentic intelligence can coexist without requiring multi-gigabyte models. --- ## ⚡ Quantized Models & Formats (16-bit, 8-bit, 4-bit, 2-bit) All official quantizations and weights are hosted directly in this repository: | Bit Width | Format | Target File | File Size | Memory Footprint | Recommended Use Case / Target Hardware | | :---: | :---: | :---: | :---: | :---: | :---: | | **16-bit** | PyTorch Safetensors | [`model.safetensors`](./model.safetensors) | 104 MB | 104 MB | Standard PyTorch / Hugging Face BF16 inference | | **16-bit** | PyTorch Safetensors | [`model.fp16.safetensors`](./model.fp16.safetensors) | 104 MB | 104 MB | Standard Half-Precision CUDA GPUs | | **16-bit** | Master FP32 | [`model.fp32.safetensors`](./model.fp32.safetensors) | 208 MB | 208 MB | Research, analysis & master precision benchmarking | | **16-bit** | GGUF F16 | [`danAI-55M-Reasoning-F16.gguf`](./danAI-55M-Reasoning-F16.gguf) | 137 MB | 137 MB | llama.cpp / Ollama unquantized reference baseline | | **16-bit** | GGUF BF16 | [`danAI-55M-Reasoning-BF16.gguf`](./danAI-55M-Reasoning-BF16.gguf) | 137 MB | 137 MB | Apple Silicon Metal & modern CPU engines | | **8-bit** | GGUF Q8_0 | [`danAI-55M-Reasoning-Q8_0.gguf`](./danAI-55M-Reasoning-Q8_0.gguf) | 73.5 MB | **~74 MB** | **⭐ Recommended for Ollama / llama.cpp (Near 0% quality loss)** | | **8-bit** | PyTorch INT8 | [`danAI-55M-Reasoning-INT8.safetensors`](./danAI-55M-Reasoning-INT8.safetensors) | 52.2 MB | **~52 MB** | High-speed PyTorch 8-bit symmetric weight inference | | **6-bit** | GGUF Q6_K | [`danAI-55M-Reasoning-Q6_K.gguf`](./danAI-55M-Reasoning-Q6_K.gguf) | 57.1 MB | ~57 MB | High-precision K-quant balance | | **5-bit** | GGUF Q5_K_M | [`danAI-55M-Reasoning-Q5_K_M.gguf`](./danAI-55M-Reasoning-Q5_K_M.gguf) | 50.9 MB | ~51 MB | Compact balanced K-quant | | **4-bit** | GGUF Q4_K_M | [`danAI-55M-Reasoning-Q4_K_M.gguf`](./danAI-55M-Reasoning-Q4_K_M.gguf) | 45.0 MB | **~45 MB** | **⭐ Optimal Edge Balance: Mobile chips, Raspberry Pi, Edge AI** | | **4-bit** | GGUF Q4_0 | [`danAI-55M-Reasoning-Q4_0.gguf`](./danAI-55M-Reasoning-Q4_0.gguf) | 43.7 MB | ~44 MB | Universal 4-bit block quant for embedded platforms | | **4-bit** | PyTorch INT4 | [`danAI-55M-Reasoning-INT4.safetensors`](./danAI-55M-Reasoning-INT4.safetensors) | 26.4 MB | **~26 MB** | Ultra-compact 4-bit packed weights for PyTorch on-device | | **3-bit** | GGUF Q3_K_M | [`danAI-55M-Reasoning-Q3_K_M.gguf`](./danAI-55M-Reasoning-Q3_K_M.gguf) | 38.6 MB | ~39 MB | Sub-40MB K-quant compression | | **2-bit** | GGUF Q2_K | [`danAI-55M-Reasoning-Q2_K.gguf`](./danAI-55M-Reasoning-Q2_K.gguf) | 32.8 MB | **~33 MB** | 2-bit K-quant for microcontrollers & extreme RAM limits | | **2-bit** | PyTorch INT2 | [`danAI-55M-Reasoning-INT2.safetensors`](./danAI-55M-Reasoning-INT2.safetensors) | 13.4 MB | **~13 MB** | Ultra-low 2-bit packed representation (4 weights/byte) | --- ## 🚀 Quickstart & Inference ### 1.
