[](https://mot.isitopen.ai/model/1166) Granite-4.0-H-Micro 📣 Update [10-07-2025]: Added a default system prompt to the chat template to guide the model towards more professional, accurate, and safe responses. Model Summary: Granite-4.0-H-Micro is a 3B parameter long-context instruct model finetuned from Granite-4.0-H-Micro-Base using a combination of open source instruction datasets with permissive license and internally collected synthetic datasets. This model is developed using a diverse set of techniques with a structured chat format, including supervised finetuning, model alignment using reinforcement learning, and model merging. Granite 4.0 instruct models feature improved instruction following (IF) and tool-calling capabilities, making them more effective in enterprise applications. - Developers: Granite Team, IBM - HF Collection: Granite 4.0 Language Models HF Collection - GitHub Repository: ibm-granite/granite-4.0-language-models - Website: Granite Docs - Release Date: October 2nd, 2025 - License: Apache 2.0 Supported Languages: English, German, Spanish, French, Japanese, Portuguese, Arabic, Czech, Italian, Korean, Dutch, and Chinese. Users may finetune Granite 4.0 models for languages beyond these languages. Intended use: The model is designed to respond to general instructions and can be used to build AI assistants for multiple domains, including business applications.

Open weights ship in several sizes and precisions. One page, all the variants — pick the one that fits your GPU. VRAM figures are estimates from model size.

Using it via the API

Call it like any OpenAI endpoint

Once AxForge deploys granite-4-0-h-micro for you, it answers on the OpenAI-compatible API — the same base URL and keys as every other model. (granite-4-0-h-micro below is illustrative; you get the exact model name on deployment.)

$ curl -sS https://api.axforge.ai/v1/chat/completions \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $AXFORGE_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"model":"granite-4-0-h-micro","messages":[{"role":"user","content":"Hello"}]}'
