No estimate

No hardware requirements for this model

The weights for this model have not been published, so it cannot be downloaded or run on your own hardware at any size. It is reachable only through its provider, and no graphics card changes that.

On record

Full specification

Everything on record for this model. Most of it describes how it was trained rather than how it runs — useful context for judging how much work went into it, and how it compares with models built at a different scale.

Size

How large the model is and how much data it was trained on. Parameters are the figure that decides whether it fits on a given graphics card.

Parameters

The training run

What it physically took to train: which chips, how many, for how long, and what that drew from the wall.

Training hardware
NVIDIA GB200

What the numbers mean

Where it came from

SWE-1.5 was published by Cognition, in the country recorded as United States of America, during October 2025. The category the publisher falls under is industry.

It works in the domain of Language, and is recorded as performing the task of code generation.

Because the weights are not available, none of the hardware figures elsewhere on this site apply to it.

Answers

SWE-1.5 — common questions

01

SWE-1.5— how many parameters does it have?

It has a parameter count of 300B. "hundreds of billions of parameters" Assuming ~300B with "Likely" confidence. That figure is the total, and it is what decides how much memory the model needs — roughly half a gigabyte per billion at the compression most people use.

02

SWE-1.5— who created it?

It was published by Cognition, based in United States of America, an organisation categorised as industry.

03

SWE-1.5— when was it released?

It was published in October 2025.

04

SWE-1.5— what is it used for?

It works in the domain of Language, and is recorded as handling the task of code generation. Models frequently carry more than one of each, and the tags describe purpose rather than capability limits.

05

SWE-1.5— what GPU do I need to run it?

None. This is a closed model — its weights were never published, so it cannot be downloaded or run on your own hardware at any price. It is reachable only through its provider.

06

SWE-1.5— is it open source?

No. Its weights have not been published, so it exists only as a service controlled by its owner.

Looking at it from the other side?

This page starts from the model. If you already own a card and want to know everything it will run, start from the hardware instead.
