Sizing: which model on which machine
This section puts 7 open models against the 8 platforms in the catalogue.
Which model fits on which machine?
Each cell gives the most precise format that loads the model on that machine, and links to the detail page with the footprint in all four formats and the remaining margin.

How to read these figures
The footprint covers the model weights. In a mixture-of-experts architecture every expert stays resident in memory even though only a fraction computes on each token: active parameters govern speed, not occupancy. The attention cache sits on top and grows with context and with the number of concurrent requests.
Method
Footprints are calculated from the parameter count and the format, with a runtime margin. They are not measured on hardware. The attention cache sits on top and depends on context and concurrency. Prices are indicative and not contractual.
