LongCat-2.5

Meituan released LongCat-2.5, a 1.6 trillion parameter native multimodal model with about 48 billion active parameters per token, built for long-horizon agentic coding.

It builds on LongCat-2.0 and adds native visual understanding by representing images as multi-level discrete tokens in the same stream as text. Training added more long-horizon trajectory data and large-scale long-horizon reinforcement learning, and failure trajectories from real agents are turned into verifiable training tasks. Meituan also optimized W4A4 inference (4-bit weights and activations) on domestic chips.
