ModernBERT is a modernized bidirectional encoder-only Transformer model (BERT-style) pre-trained on 2 trillion tokens of English and code data with a native context length of up to 8,192 tokens. ModernBERT leverages recent architectural improvements such as: ModernBERT’s native long context length makes it ideal for tasks that require processing long documents, such as retrieval, classification, and semantic search within large corpora. The model was trained on a large corpus of text and code, making it suitable for a wide range of downstream tasks, including code retrieval and hybrid (text + code) semantic search. It is available in the following sizes: For more information about ModernBERT, we recommend our release blog post for a high-level overview, and our arXiv pre-print for in-depth information. ModernBERT is a collaboration between Answer.AI, LightOn, and friends. You can use these models directly with the transformers library starting from v4.48.0: Since ModernBERT is a Masked Language…

Compatibility and lineage

Reported languages: en

Base-model lineage was not included.

Parameter count is not a RAM/VRAM requirement. Check precision, quantization, context length and runtime compatibility in the model card; no hardware or API-cost claim is inferred here.

Use and evaluate

Check license terms and access requirements first. Review the model card’s documented loading instructions, evaluations and safety limitations. Benchmark scores are not imported by this directory, and popularity is not an accuracy ranking.

No model weights are downloaded or executed by AltAPIs. Never enable remote model code without reviewing it.
