**Important**: To use FlowState-r1.1 include the `revision=r1.1` argument when loading the model, as demonstrated in the `Recommended Use` section. If no `revision` argument is provided, the version 1.0 is used. - **FlowState**: We present an SSM-based time series foundation model that can be dynamically adjusted to the specific characteristics of the time series during evaluation. - **Functional Basis Decoder (FBD)**: We propose a novel decoder, as a critical component of FlowState, that utilizes a set of continuous basis functions to make continuous forecasts and allow seamless adjustment to specific input characteristics. - **Flexible temporal adaptation**: FlowState can dynamically adjust the context and target length to the timescale of the provided time series. - **Compact and high-performing**: With fewer than 10M parameters and the ability to forecast multiple consecutive patches in parallel, FlowState delivers state-of-the-art accuracy with exceptional efficiency. This model card contains the model-weights for research-use only and full reproducibility of our results published in our paper. However - if you are looking for the FlowState model weights for commercial and enterprise use, please refer to our granite releases here Despite being **more than 10x smaller** than the next best models, FlowState is the **best Zero-Shot model** with publicly available source code and model weights on the GIFT-Eval Leaderboard, as of Mar. 16th 2026. The Figure compares GIFT MASE Performance vs. model size for FlowState and the most competitive Zero-Shot Models. Model Details can be found in our Paper. Currently FlowState only supports zero-shot forecasting. FlowState can be used to make predictions as follows:

Frequently asked questions

Do open weights permit free commercial use?

Not necessarily. Check the version license, commercial conditions and usage policies. Self-hosting incurs compute and maintenance costs.

Are these real-time billing prices?

These are timestamped source snapshots, not live billing prices. Check the channel for current versions, regions, discounts and billing methods.
