Inception: Mercury 2Mercury 2
186M tokens
Mercury 2 is an extremely fast reasoning LLM, and the first reasoning diffusion LLM (dLLM). Instead of generating tokens sequentially, Mercury 2 produces and refines multiple tokens in parallel, achieving >1,000 tokens/sec on standard GPUs. Mercury 2 is 5x+ faster than leading speed-optimized LLMs like Claude 4.5 Haiku and GPT 5 Mini, at a fraction of the cost. Mercury 2 supports tunable reasoning levels, 128K context, native tool use, and schema-aligned JSON output. Built for coding workflows where latency compounds, real-time voice/search, and agent loops. OpenAI API compatible. Read more in the blog post.

Mercury is the first diffusion large language model (dLLM). Applying a breakthrough discrete diffusion approach, the model runs 5-10x faster than even speed optimized models like GPT-4.1 Nano and Claude 3.5 Haiku while matching their performance. Mercury's speed enables developers to provide responsive user experiences, including with voice agents, search interfaces, and chatbots.

Mercury Coder is the first diffusion large language model (dLLM). Applying a breakthrough discrete diffusion approach, the model runs 5-10x faster than even speed optimized models like Claude 3.5 Haiku and GPT-4o Mini while matching their performance. Mercury Coder's speed means that developers can stay in the flow while coding, enjoying rapid chat-based iteration and responsive code completion suggestions. On Copilot Arena, Mercury Coder ranks 1st in speed and ties for 2nd in quality. Read more in the blog post here.
