Overview

Google’s Gemma 4 26B A4B IT is a 26B-class Mixture-of-Experts Gemma 4 model variant for image-text-to-text workflows, with 25.2B total parameters, 3.8B active parameters, and a 256K context window.

Details

Gemma 4 26B A4B IT is part of Google’s Gemma 4 family. Google’s Gemma 4 model overview describes a 26B Mixture-of-Experts model designed for high-throughput advanced reasoning, with downloads available through Kaggle and Hugging Face. The official model card lists the 26B A4B MoE configuration with 25.2B total parameters, 3.8B active parameters, a 256K context window, text/image modalities, benchmarks, usage guidance, and Apache 2.0 licensing. The Hugging Face page for google/gemma-4-26B-A4B-it categorizes the artifact as image-text-to-text, and Google Gemini API release notes state that gemma-4-26b-a4b-it was released as part of Gemma 4 and is available in AI Studio and through the Gemini API.

When to Use

Use for evaluating a Google Gemma 4 Mixture-of-Experts model with text and image modalities. Use when you need a long-context Gemma model variant with a 256K context window. Use when comparing a 26B-class MoE model that activates 3.8B parameters per inference path. Use when you want an Apache 2.0-licensed Gemma 4 model available through official Google resources and Hugging Face.
