Danish Foundation Models trained it from scratch on 161 datasets. Across 20 benchmarks spanning English, math and code, and Danish, it beats the original HRM-Text 1B, sets a new Danish state of the art, and competes with Qwen 3.5 4B and Gemma 4 E2B. Weights are on Hugging Face. arXiv 2608.13517 The claim that matters: a licensing-clean data pipeline no longer costs an order of magnitude in capability at the small end.
