Google Gemma 4
by Google DeepMind
Gemma 4 is Google DeepMind's fourth generation of open-weight multimodal AI models, released March 31, 2026 under the Apache 2.0 license. The family includes four variants (E2B, E4B, 26B MoE, 31B Dense) optimized for deployment from edge devices to enterprise servers. The 31B Dense model ranks #3 among open models on Arena AI and achieves 89.2% on AIME 2026 mathematics benchmark.

Proprietary
Primary Use Cases
- On-device AI for smartphones and IoT (E2B/E4B)
- Enterprise fine-tuning and deployment (31B Dense)
- Agentic workflows with function calling
- Multilingual applications
- Cost-effective open-source alternative to proprietary models
- Research and academic use
✅ Strengths
- 89.2% on AIME 2026 math benchmark (31B) vs 20.8% for Gemma 3 27B
- 80.0% on LiveCodeBench v6 coding benchmark (31B)
- #3 ranking among open models on Arena AI (31B)
- No per-token API pricing — free to download and self-host
- Apache 2.0 license without restrictive MAU caps
- MoE architecture provides large-model intelligence at 4B inference cost (26B variant)
⚠️ Limitations
- Self-hosting requires GPU infrastructure and MLOps expertise
- No managed API with SLA guarantees (unlike proprietary models)
- 26B and 31B models require significant compute for inference
- Smaller models (E2B/E4B) have reduced reasoning capabilities vs larger variants
