Description

Mercury Coder is the first diffusion large language model (dLLM). Applying a breakthrough discrete diffusion approach, the model runs 5-10x faster than even speed optimized models like Claude 3.5 Haiku and GPT-4o Mini while matching their performance. Mercury Coder's speed means that developers can stay in the flow while coding, enjoying rapid chat-based iteration and responsive code completion suggestions. On Copilot Arena, Mercury Coder ranks 1st in speed and ties for 2nd in quality. Read more in the [blog post here](https://www.inceptionlabs.ai/blog/introducing-mercury).
