DiffusionGemma
Open LLM that generates 256 tokens per forward pass
DiffusionGemma is a 26B MoE open model that generates text in parallel blocks using a diffusion approach, delivering up to 4x faster local inference for researchers and developers building speed-critical or non-linear text applications.
The autoregressive assumption has been baked into LLM inference for years. DiffusionGemma is an open-weight experiment in questioning it.
Token-by-token generation is efficient on cloud servers batching thousands of requests. On a single local GPU, it wastes most of your compute. DiffusionGemma generates 256 tokens in parallel per forward pass, refining the full block iteratively until the output converges — shifting the hardware bottleneck from memory-bandwidth to compute, where dedicated GPUs have the most headroom.
4x faster inference on dedicated GPUs: 1000+ tokens per second on H100, 700+ on RTX 5090
Bi-directional attention across the generation block, suited for code infilling, inline editing, and non-linear text tasks
26B MoE, 3.8B active parameters, 18GB VRAM when quantized — consumer GPU accessible
Apache 2.0, available now on Hugging Face with ecosystem support from vLLM, MLX, Unsloth, HF Transformers, and NVIDIA NeMo and NIM
The tradeoff is real: quality is lower than Gemma 4, and Google recommends Gemma 4 for production outputs. Speedup is also dedicated-GPU-specific.
This is for researchers and developers who want to run fast, non-linear generation experiments locally without enterprise hardware.

Who hunted DiffusionGemma?
DiffusionGemma was hunted by Raghav Mehra. A “hunter” on Product Hunt is the community member who submits a product to the platform — uploading the images, the link, and tagging the makers behind it. Hunters typically write the first comment explaining why a product is worth attention, and their followers are notified the moment they post. Around 79% of featured launches on Product Hunt are self-hunted by their makers, but a well-known hunter still acts as a signal of quality to the rest of the community. See the full all-time top hunters leaderboard to discover who is shaping the Product Hunt ecosystem.
