This model is catalogued for reference. It is not hosted on LLM EU yet, and no first-party endpoint serves it here. Requests to it go to the provider directly, under that provider's own terms.

Summary

Teuken 7B Instruct v0.6 is a German publicly funded model trained on all 24 official EU languages, developed by Fraunhofer, Forschungszentrum Jülich, TU Dresden and DFKI. It is published under CC-BY-NC-4.0, so the weights are downloadable but may only be used for private, non-commercial, research and educational purposes. On the project’s own EU21 evaluation it averages 0.57, ahead of Llama 3.1 8B Instruct at 0.563 and Mistral 7B Instruct v0.3 at 0.527 on the same test set.

When to use it

Strengths

  • trained on all 24 official EU languages rather than English-first data
  • published EU21 evaluation against Llama 3.1 8B and Mistral 7B
  • small enough to run on one mid-range accelerator
  • German public funding, with evaluation code and data documentation

Limits

  • CC-BY-NC-4.0 forbids commercial use of the released checkpoint
  • 4096-token context window
  • a 7B model, so reasoning and coding lag larger releases
