Licensing

The license, in plain terms.

Liquid's models are free to use, including commercially. You only pay us once your company's annual revenue passes $10 million.

Everything is released under the LFM Open License, which grants broad, royalty-free rights to use, modify, and distribute the models. There's no copyleft, so your fine-tunes stay yours, and research, education, and non-profit use are always free with no revenue limit.

Pricing FAQ

Common questions

Is it really free?
Yes. Liquid's open foundation models are free to download, run, and fine-tune, including in commercial products, until your company passes $10 million in annual revenue. The full terms live in the LFM Open License.
Can I use Liquid in a commercial product?
Yes. The license permits commercial use; the only limit is the $10 million annual revenue threshold. Above it, your right to use the models commercially under the free license ends and you'll need a commercial license.
If I fine-tune a model, do I have to release it?
No. The license has no copyleft requirement, so you can keep your fine-tuned models private and proprietary.
What about research, universities, and non-profits?
Qualified non-profits, schools, and researchers can use the models for non-commercial and research purposes for free, with no revenue threshold.
What happens when we pass $10 million in revenue?
Your free commercial rights end and you'll need a commercial license to keep running the models in production. Contact us and we'll help you find the right path.
Will Liquid models run on my hardware?
LFMs are built to run on CPUs, GPUs, and NPUs, from phones and laptops to vehicles and embedded devices. Model sizes range from a few hundred million to a few billion parameters, with variants small enough to run under 1GB. Browse the model library to match a size to your target hardware.
Why run on-device instead of paying per token for a cloud API?
On-device inference removes per-token API costs, keeps latency in the millisecond range, and works offline. For sustained or privacy-sensitive workloads, running locally avoids recurring usage bills entirely. You're not metered per request.
