About IBM

IBM publishes the Granite model family and supporting model-development resources. The documented collection spans language, speech, vision, safeguards, embeddings and time-series tasks. These task groups support different interfaces and inputs and should retain their individual model identities.

Focus

• Granite language models
• Retrieval and embedding models
• Task-specific models and safeguards

Projects and interfaces

• Granite Language

  model family

  Language models documented for text-based application workloads.

• Granite Embedding and Guardian

  specialized models

  Models for vector representations and content-related safeguard tasks.

• Granite Speech, Vision and Time Series

  specialized models

  Separate lines addressing speech, visual information and forecasting.

Scope and limitations

• Published licenses and task definitions should be read at the individual-release level.

Official references

• IBM Granite. Checked 2026-11-02.

Models

492 named catalog records. These are name and distribution records, not a count of distinct model architectures.
