NVIDIA releases Nemotron-3.5-Bolt-E4B-4GB quantized small model

Original title: nvidia/NVIDIA-Nemotron-3.5-Bolt-E4B-4GB (text-generation)

NVIDIA released NVIDIA-Nemotron-3.5-Bolt-E4B-4GB on Hugging Face, a Q4_K_M quantized version of its small language model post-trained from Gemma-4-E4B-it, with 8B total parameters (4B effective) and up to 64K token input and output context. Designed for low-memory, low-TTFT operation, it targets local voice and device assistants, interactive personas, and embedded interfaces, improving multi-turn tool use, instruction following, and input grounding, with thinking-mode chat-template controls and optional DFlash drafter for speculative decoding, under the OpenMDW-1.1 license for commercial use.

Why it matters

The README gives concrete specs on parameters, context length, precision, and deployment, letting readers assess its fit for low-memory local use.

Description

NVIDIA-Nemotron-3.5-Bolt-E4B-4GB is a small language model (SLM) further post-trained from Gemma-4-E4B-it by NVIDIA. Nemotron-3.5-Bolt-E4B carries forward Gemma’s strong conversational capabilities and further improves multi-turn tool use, instruction following, and input grounding for fast local voice/device assistants, interactive personas, and embedded/edge interfaces. Designed for low-memory, low-TTFT operation, the model allows agents to respond quickly while preserving headroom for applications or adjacent model pipelines.

demo

For speculative decoding, use the companion DFlash drafter. For the full-precision (BF16) version, see NVIDIA-Nemotron-3.5-Bolt-E4B-BF16.

This model is ready for commercial or non‑commercial use.
