Reflection releases Beam, a 501B open-weight MoE model with 1M-token context

Reflection, a new US AI lab, has launched Beam, its first model, as an open-weight mixture-of-experts system with 501B total parameters (23B active per token) and a 1M-token context window, released under Apache 2.0. The model is built for coding and agentic use cases, ships with a custom Rust-based inference harness, and has day-0 support in transformers, vLLM and SGLang. Reflection reports strong results on coding, reasoning and tool-calling benchmarks across BF16, FP8 and NVFP4 checkpoints.
