Fred 7B is a general-purpose reasoning model built on
OLMo-3-7B-Think, developed by
Tendie Labs. It continues the Fred model lineage — following Fred 32B and Fred 42B — with a focus on STEM reasoning and structured diagram generation.
Fred 7B was trained on
Tender Mermaid V2, an updated and improved version of the dataset pipeline used for Fred 32B and Fred 42B — meaning its Mermaid.js capabilities are built on a stronger foundation than the larger models despite the smaller parameter count. Portions of the training dataset were generated with the assistance of
Fred-35B-A3B, Tendie Labs' own MoE model, making this a dataset refined within the Fred lineage itself. It also incorporates reasoning-focused and code-oriented data to improve general problem-solving performance at the 7B scale.
