Aion-1.0 is a multi-model system designed for high performance across various tasks, including reasoning and coding. It is built on DeepSeek-R1, augmented with additional models and techniques such as Tree of Thoughts (ToT) and Mixture of Experts (MoE). It is Aion Lab's most powerful reasoning model.

Aion-1.0-Mini 32B parameter model is a distilled version of the DeepSeek-R1 model, designed for strong performance in reasoning domains such as mathematics, coding, and logic. It is a modified variant of a FuseAI model that outperforms R1-Distill-Qwen-32B and R1-Distill-Llama-70B, with benchmark results available on its Hugging Face page, independently replicated for verification.

Aion-2.0 is a variant of DeepSeek V3.2 optimized for immersive roleplaying and storytelling. It is particularly strong at introducing tension, crises, and conflict into stories, making narratives feel more engaging. It also handles mature and darker themes with more nuance and depth.

Aion-RP-Llama-3.1-8B ranks the highest in the character evaluation portion of the RPBench-Auto benchmark, a roleplaying-specific variant of Arena-Hard-Auto, where LLMs evaluate each other’s responses. It is a fine-tuned base model rather than an instruct model, designed to produce more natural and varied writing.
