research preview

Elorian, the Palo Alto startup that raised a $55M seed at a $300M valuation, has released Glimpse as a research preview with API access at $0.60 per 1M input tokens and $3 per 1M output tokens. The model can crop, pull video frames, and run code mid-reasoning. Benchmark claims come from Elorian's own evaluations.

Odyssey has opened a free public research preview of Odyssey-3, an autoregressive diffusion transformer that generates interactive environments from text prompts in real time. The base model has 14 billion parameters and outputs 832 × 480 video. Odyssey's headline Physics-IQ score of 66.1 does not meet the benchmark's own requirements for a record claim.

Reka AI has released a research preview of Rho-1, a 19-billion-parameter omni-model that processes and generates text, images, video, and robot control actions in a single network. Reka says it uses no tool calls or external models. Context window, pricing, and benchmark scores have not been disclosed.

GitHub has released Project HydraFusion as a research preview in GitHub Copilot, an orchestration system that routes coding tasks across multiple models. GitHub claims its selective workflows matched or exceeded an Opus 5 baseline in offline evaluations while cutting estimated workflow cost.
