+# Maple-Preview
+
+**DeepGrove · 2026**
+
+Today we introduce Maple-Preview, an open-source 20B-A1B ternary-weight reasoning LLM. Maple-Preview has SOTA reasoning for its weight class and is even competitive with larger models. It solves IMO-level problems and runs at 200+ tokens/sec on a Mac mini M4, 5–16× faster than efficient models like Gemma 4, Qwen3.5, and gpt-oss.

+
+## Architecture
+
+Maple-Preview is a 20B-A1B reasoning model designed from the start for efficient on-device inference. It utilizes a 24-layer, 256-expert (8 active) configuration with 3:1 SWA-512:GA attention. 
+
+## Evaluation
+
+On benchmarks, Maple-Preview sets a new point on the Pareto frontier for both memory-to-performance and speed-to-performance, demonstrating its strong reasoning capabilities. However, we note that this preview is focused primarily on raw reasoning and, as such, may underperform on agentic benchmarks. We intend to continue improving general performance through extended training before Maple's full release.

+
+## Limitations
+
+This preview received minimal post-training for agentic tasks and only
+small-scale general reinforcement learning.
