Solar Mini 4 - Upstage's compact model for high-volume agent workloads

Solar Mini 4 is a compact language model from Upstage, built for agentic use cases where response speed matters. It pairs trilingual fluency centered on Korean with a very long context window.

DifferentiatorDetail
512K context, 128K outputSupports long-context workloads with up to 512K input tokens and 128K max output tokens.
Korean-first trilingual supportFluent Korean alongside strong English and Japanese, for both input and output.
Full agentic capability setTool calling, structured outputs, and a dedicated reasoning mode are all supported.
On-premises deploymentAvailable on Upstage Console and Playground, and deployable on-premises for enterprise environments.
API privacy by defaultUpstage does not collect API input data, store it, or use it for model training.

Built for agents that run all day

The model's design targets agentic production: agents that call tools repeatedly, produce structured outputs, and need fast responses at scale. The reasoning mode adds multi-step problem solving on top of this workflow, so a single compact model can cover both quick tool-driven turns and harder reasoning steps.

Korean strength in a small package

Upstage positions Korean fluency as a core strength of the Solar family, and Solar Mini 4 carries it into the compact tier. This makes it a practical choice for Korean-language agent deployments.
