Research release

Use the named training stage

The repository is separate from NextStep-1-Large and its editing release. It gives researchers a pretraining checkpoint to adapt or compare with the completed generation model.StepFun NextStep-1-Large-Pretrain model card

Define what the next training stage should add

Practical guidance. A base image model can be useful for domain adaptation or preference training. State the intended change first, such as better layout control or a document style, and compare it with the unmodified checkpoint.
