webAI built a 1-gigabyte logic expert open-source model that runs on a phone and out-reasons models more than twice its size
TwiL-LM3, a 1.7B formal-logic model that beats OpenAI's gpt-oss-120b on 4 of 5 formal reasoning benchmarks while running efficiently on consumer hardware. Available on Huggingface.
That's 40× fewer parameters, 2.6× faster inference
The model does one specialized task, turning plain English into formal logic and checking whether conclusions follow from premises.
i.e. taking statements written in ordinary language and working out, step by step, what does and does not follow from them.
Its trained on a purpose-engineered, proprietary formal-logic data engine built from open sources.
Instead of training from scratch, webAI fine-tuned base models with a 289MB LoRA adapter of roughly 72M parameters.
