Overview

Gemma 4 26B is Google's latest open model, running on Cloudflare Workers AI with a 256K context window and a 26B-parameter architecture using 4 active experts (MoE). It brings Google's latest advances in small-model efficiency to the edge, making it suitable for long-form text tasks, summarization, and instruction-following workloads. The 256K context window is particularly useful for processing full-length documents or long conversation histories. Operates on Cloudflare's shared 10,000 Neurons/day free allocation; API access uses Cloudflare's native format, not the OpenAI SDK.
