Decision reading
Mellum2-12B-A2.5B-Thinking is tracked, but not publicly ranked yet. The profile exposes 6 sourced benchmark rows and leaves unsupported fields blank until a published record exists.

Data as of September 4, 2026 · How the score is built

Strongest published evidence

Agentic ranks #76. Particularly useful for coding agents, browser research, and computer-use workflows.

Validate before choosing

6 published rows leave some tracked benchmark slots empty. No comparable first-party API token rate is published.

Decision snapshot

Each value carries a field reference instead of floating alone. Markers compare this model with the current ranked and priced catalog; they are not absolute quality thresholds.

How much of this is verified

Coverage is split by category so a strong number never hides a thin evidence base. Verified means the row is tied to a published source; provisional rows remain visible but separate.

Deployment options

Self-host and provider-specific paths stay separate from benchmark evidence so operating constraints are visible before a score becomes the whole decision.

Published weights are available, but BenchLM does not yet have a sourced parameter and VRAM profile for this exact model. Hardware cost estimates stay unavailable until that sizing record is complete.

Category score record

Scores and ranks appear only where published evidence can be displayed. The table keeps the score, weight, cohort, and evidence state together.

Lineage

The sequence follows explicit supersedes links. A successor's displayed score stays at least 0.1 points above its predecessor; raw benchmark rows do not move. Scores and prices remain blank when the corresponding public row or first-party rate is unavailable.

How to read this profile

The visual layer above carries the decisions. These notes preserve the model, ranking, coverage, and family context behind the numbers.

We track Mellum2-12B-A2.5B-Thinking, but the public leaderboard excludes this profile until enough non-generated benchmark coverage is available. Only published rows appear above.

Mellum2-12B-A2.5B-Thinking is a open weight model with a 128K context window. It uses an explicit reasoning mode, which can improve complex problem solving while adding latency and token use.

Official exact-value snapshot from the JetBrains Mellum2-12B-A2.5B-Thinking Hugging Face model card and Mellum2 technical report. BenchLM maps the self-reported post-training evaluation rows that match existing schema keys and stores LiveCodeBench v6 on the standard LiveCodeBench lane for consistency with other provider v6 tables.

Mellum2-12B-A2.5B-Thinking sits in the Mellum2 12B-A2.5B family with Mellum2-12B-A2.5B-Instruct. 6 of 422 tracked benchmark slots currently have displayable evidence. Missing categories stay blank.

Its strongest eligible category is Agentic at #76, while its lowest eligible position is Knowledge at #96. particularly useful for coding agents, browser research, and computer-use workflows.

Frequently asked questions

How does Mellum2-12B-A2.5B-Thinking perform overall in AI benchmarks?

Mellum2-12B-A2.5B-Thinking has 6 source-displayable benchmark rows, but it does not qualify for a public overall rank. The available rows remain visible by category without being converted into a site-wide score. Missing evidence stays blank instead of being estimated from an earlier model.

Is Mellum2-12B-A2.5B-Thinking good for knowledge and understanding?

Mellum2-12B-A2.5B-Thinking ranks #96 out of 181 eligible models for knowledge and understanding, with a public category score of 48.8/100. Higher-ranked alternatives are available for workloads where this category decides the choice. Check the underlying rows before treating the aggregate as a workload guarantee.

Is Mellum2-12B-A2.5B-Thinking good for coding and programming?

Mellum2-12B-A2.5B-Thinking has source-displayable benchmark coverage for coding and programming, but the public category table does not assign it a rank there. The individual rows remain available for inspection. A missing category position means the evidence threshold was not met; it does not convert the model's unmeasured work into a zero.

Is Mellum2-12B-A2.5B-Thinking good for agentic tool use and computer tasks?

Mellum2-12B-A2.5B-Thinking ranks #76 out of 151 eligible models for agentic tool use and computer tasks, with a public category score of 48.3/100. Higher-ranked alternatives are available for workloads where this category decides the choice. Check the underlying rows before treating the aggregate as a workload guarantee.

Is Mellum2-12B-A2.5B-Thinking good for instruction following?

Mellum2-12B-A2.5B-Thinking has source-displayable benchmark coverage for instruction following, but the public category table does not assign it a rank there. The individual rows remain available for inspection. A missing category position means the evidence threshold was not met; it does not convert the model's unmeasured work into a zero.

Is Mellum2-12B-A2.5B-Thinking open source?

Mellum2-12B-A2.5B-Thinking is an open-weight model from JetBrains. Its weights can be downloaded for local or hosted deployment, subject to the published license. Open weight does not automatically mean open source: training data and training code may remain private, and commercial restrictions can still apply.

Which sibling models are related to Mellum2-12B-A2.5B-Thinking?

Mellum2-12B-A2.5B-Thinking belongs to the Mellum2 12B-A2.5B family. Related tracked variants include Mellum2-12B-A2.5B-Instruct. A sibling link indicates shared lineage or a documented configuration relationship; it does not mean the variants have identical pricing, context limits, benchmark evidence, or deployment behavior. Compare before switching.

Does Mellum2-12B-A2.5B-Thinking have full benchmark coverage on BenchLM?

No. Mellum2-12B-A2.5B-Thinking currently has 6 source-displayable rows across 422 tracked benchmark slots. The profile exposes published, non-generated evidence and leaves missing categories blank until an exact evaluation is available. Coverage describes how much was measured; it is not a penalty added to an individual benchmark result.

What is the context window size of Mellum2-12B-A2.5B-Thinking?

Mellum2-12B-A2.5B-Thinking has a reported context window of 128K in the exact-model catalog record. The value stays visible, but the profile marks its source link as unavailable instead of presenting it as directly documented. Maximum output length remains separate because providers often publish a different limit.
