# udgamlabs/Laghu

Laghu is a 152M-parameter English chat model trained from scratch by Udgam Labs for $146 of pretraining compute. Dense, 152M params. Context: 16K tokens (config). License: apache-2.0. Vendor-reported: "We fixed these categories, rivals and statistics in advance and publish every result as measured." Vendor-reported: "Compute gap: Falcon-H1-Tiny-90M-Instruct, which beats it everywhere we measured, trained on 800B tokens with a preference-tuning stage, about 12× Laghu's training compute (from TII's published description; our estimate)."
