Introducing Fortytwo Engine

An inference API that runs open-weight models through Swarm Inference

• 7% higher scores on average vs. the base model
• Nearly 25% fewer tokens per task
• Same per-token price and speed
• Private by default

First model: Qwen3.8-27B

Nemotron 3.5 Super VL is live on Fortytwo Engine

Same weights, turbocharged by Swarm Inference:

• Up to 45% higher scores on select benchmarks
• Up to 80% higher token efficiency per task

Available for free: https://t.co/Wm57NUE283

[Ivan Nikitin @inikitin]

We built Fortytwo Engine to compete on intelligence per dollar, but most inference providers we see compete only on price and speed, without revealing how much accuracy gets lost in those optimizations.

Thanks @fluence_project for inviting us to write about these issues

[Fortytwo @fortytwo]

We’ve cut Qwen3.8 27B pricing by 80%

Qwen3.8 27B on Engine:

@kingvilly14 @encrypt_wizard Larger models are coming, but you might be surprised by what Qwen 3.8 can do when running on Fortytwo Engine

1b+ tokens were processed on Fortytwo Engine this week

What are you going to build with the Fortytwo API?

[Fortytwo @fortytwo]

Fortytwo Engine more than doubled Qwen3.8-27B’s score on @scaling01's LisanBench

Standalone BF16: 2,452
Fortytwo Engine swarm: 5,197 (+112%)

LisanBench tests strategic planning, memory and constraint following: build the longest word chain possible using single-letter edits, dictionary words and no repeats.

Both runs: 50 starting words × 3 trials, temperature 1.0, 100k-token cap, xhigh reasoning, leaderboard scoring.

What improved:
• Repetition loops observed in the standalone run; none observed on Engine
• Higher mean scores on 40/50 starting words
• Mean link validity: 92.2% → 97.1%
• Fully valid chains: 5.6% → 22.9% of recorded answers
• Answers after retries: 72/150 → 140/150

Against the October 16 leaderboard, these scores would place 28th → 14th, putting Qwen3.8-27B on Fortytwo Engine between GPT 5.4 (medium) and DeepSeek V3.2 Speciale.

These are our runs, not official leaderboard entries.

What do you get from Fortytwo Engine?

@inikitin breaks it down

[Fortytwo @fortytwo]

Qwen3.8-27B by @Alibaba_Qwen is now live on Fortytwo Engine.

Same model, with better answers:

• 24.7% fewer tokens per run
• DeepSWE: +13% accuracy
• GDP.pdf: +11.4% accuracy
• Same per-token price and speed

[The Rollup @therollupco]

Ivan Nikitin (@inikitin) co-founder and CEO at @fortytwo says the AI race doesn't have to be won by whoever controls the biggest data center, chips, and energy supply.

Small specialized models are far more efficient and Fortytwo connects many of them into one network.

Working together they can beat frontier models while running on ordinary laptops.

Two great days at @hub71ad Impact Defined 2026 in Abu Dhabi.

We showcased Swarm Inference at the Fortytwo booth and pitched it from the stage.

The strongest conversations were around sovereign AI: how enterprises and governments can get frontier-grade intelligence where their data already lives, using specialized models and swarm infrastructure instead of relying entirely on centralized AI providers.

[Fortytwo @fortytwo]

Excited to be joining Hub71’s Cohort 18 in Abu Dhabi!

We’re working closely with new design partners across robotics, engineering, aviation, and supply chains to scale swarm intelligence for real-world domains.

[Hub71 @hub71ad]

The future of innovation starts here ✨

We're proud to welcome Cohort18 to Hub71, a new group of ambitious founders building solutions that will shape industries, solve global challenges, and drive the next wave of technological advancement.
