pplx-decider-flash-v1.2
Decider Flash adapts Qwen3.5-4B using probability distributions from larger Decider teachers.
What the release provides
The Apache 2.0 checkpoint supports text and images. Although it can process joint requests, its card reports stronger results with separate questions on many multi-question tasks.pplx-decider-flash-v1.2 official model card
How to use it well
Practical guidance. Compare error rates and calibration with the larger model. Keep the question wording fixed when assessing whether a smaller checkpoint is sufficient.
Hosted and local access
The hosted service processes Flash questions separately and bills the state for each question. Decider for Mac runs this model locally on Apple silicon with macOS 13 or later.Perplexity Decisions APIPerplexity Decider for Mac
