## Overview

**Microsoft Research** developed and released the **Phi-4-reasoning** series, a cutting-edge family of reasoning-focused language models optimized for chain-of-thought (CoT), step-by-step problem solving, and high-efficiency inference. These models excel in advanced mathematical reasoning, scientific Q&A, and instruction-following scenarios.

The Phi-4 models introduce extended context lengths, ChatML reasoning templates, and strong performance on benchmark datasets, while maintaining compact sizes that are ideal for memory- and latency-constrained environments.

## Variants

- **phi-4-reasoning:** q2_k, q3_k_l, q3_k_m, q3_k_s, q4_k_m, q4_k_s, q5_k_m, q5_k_s, q6_k, q8_0
- **phi-4-reasoning-plus:** q2_k, q3_k_l, q3_k_m, q3_k_s, q4_k_m, q4_k_s, q5_k_m, q5_k_s, q6_k, q8_0

## Use it with Jan (UI)

1. Install **Jan** using [Quickstart](https://jan.ai/docs/quickstart)
2. Use in Jan model Hub:
   ```bash
   cortexso/phi4
   ```

## Use it with Cortex (CLI)

1. Install **Cortex** using [Quickstart](https://cortex.jan.ai/docs/quickstart)
2. Run the model with command:
   ```bash
   cortex run phi4
   ```
