Gemini 2.5 Pro

Google DeepMind

Gemini 2.5 Pro, released by Google in May 2025, is a large language model from the Gemini 2.5 family designed for complex reasoning, coding, and long-context analysis tasks. It features a 1M token context window, native support for text, image, video, and audio input, and integrated thinking capabilities for multi-step problem solving. Gemini 2.5 Pro targets advanced coding workflows, scientific reasoning, and applications requiring deep understanding across large, mixed-modality contexts.

Alibaba / Qwen

Qwen2.5-7B-Instruct is a 7-billion-parameter open-weight language model from Alibaba's Qwen team, released in September 2024 as part of the Qwen2.5 series trained on 18 trillion tokens with improved code, math, and multilingual coverage. The model delivers significantly stronger instruction-following, structured output generation, and long-context handling compared to its predecessor, supporting 128K context windows in a compact form factor. It became widely adopted as a foundation for fine-tuning, RAG pipelines, and on-device deployment due to its balance of capability and efficiency.
