Open-weight H2O Danube3 Series
H2O.ai overtakes Apple and matches Microsoft with Danube3-4B, scoring over 80% accuracy on 10-shot HellaSwag benchmark
![Data stages for H2O-Danube3-4B The model is trained over three different stages with different data mixes. The first data stage consist of 90.6% of web data which is gradually decreasing to 81.7% at the second stage, and to 51.6% at the third stage. The first two stages include the majority of the tokens: 4.6T and 1.35T tokens respectively, while the third stage comprises of 0.05T tokens.](/platform/danube/_jcr_content/root/container/section/par/advancedcolumncontro_145444143/columns0/image.coreimg.png/1725987362783/danubestages-chart1-2x.png)

H2O Danube3-4B and .5B now available on Hugging Face
We trained H2O Danube3 models from scratch on ~100 H100 GPUs using our own curated dataset of 6T tokens. H2O LLM Studio was used to fine-tune Danube3 foundation models for conversational use cases and outperformed GPT-4 both in price and performance.
