Trinity-Large-Preview

Introduction

Trinity-Large-Preview is a 398B-parameter sparse Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) model with approximately 13B active parameters per token. It is the largest model in Arcee AI's Trinity family, trained on more than 17 trillion tokens and delivering frontier-level performance with strong long-context comprehension. Trinity-Large-Preview is a lightly post-trained model based on Trinity-Large-Base.

More details on the training of Trinity Large are available in the technical report.

Model Variants

The Trinity Large family consists of three checkpoints from the same training run:

  • Trinity-Large-Preview (this release): Lightly post-trained, chat-ready model undergoing active RL
  • Trinity-Large-Thinking: Reasoning-optimized, agentic post-training with extended chain-of-thought
  • Trinity-Large-TrueBase: 10T-token pre-anneal pretraining checkpoint
  • Trinity-Large-Base: Full 17T-token pretrained foundation model with mid-training anneals

Architecture

Trinity-Large-Preview uses a sparse MoE configuration designed to maximize efficiency while maintaining large-scale capacity.

Usage

Running our model

Transformers

Use the main transformers branch or pass trust_remote_code=True with a released version.

from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForCausalLM
import torch

model_id = "arcee-ai/Trinity-Large-Preview"
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_id)
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(
    model_id,
    torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16,
    device_map="auto",
    trust_remote_code=True
)

messages = [
    {"role": "user", "content": "Who are you?"},
]

input_ids = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(
    messages,
    add_generation_prompt=True,
    return_tensors="pt"
).to(model.device)

outputs = model.generate(
    input_ids,
    max_new_tokens=256,
    do_sample=True,
    temperature=0.8,
    top_k=50,
    top_p=0.8
)

response = tokenizer.decode(outputs[0], skip_special_tokens=True)
print(response)

Using it via the API

Call it like any OpenAI endpoint

Once AxForge deploys trinity-large for you, it answers on the OpenAI-compatible API — the same base URL and keys as every other model. (trinity-large 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":"trinity-large","messages":[{"role":"user","content":"Hello"}]}'

Create an account — your API key is available in the console. 5M tokens/month currently included with every new account at launch.
