Inkling is a broad generalist model, trained across agentic, reasoning, coding, instruction-following, factuality, vision, and audio tasks rather than optimized for a single domain. The model also supports controllable thinking effort.
To use Inkling, set model to thinkingmachines/inkling in the AI SDK:
import { streamText } from 'ai';
const result = streamText({
model: 'thinkingmachines/inkling',
prompt: 'Summarize this report and list the key risks.',
});
AI Gateway provides a unified API for calling models, tracking usage and cost, and configuring retries, failover, and performance optimizations for higher-than-provider uptime. It includes built-in custom reporting, Zero Data Retention support, budgets for API keys, routing rules, and more.
AI Gateway reflects provider pricing with no markup and does not charge a platform fee on inference, including on Bring Your Own Key (BYOK) requests.
