Model family

Profluent-E1

Profluent-E1 is a model family from Profluent123, with 3 assessed releases in this catalog. Licenses and availability are recorded for each release, not for the family; its releases use the Profluent-E1 Clickthrough License Agreement.

Profluent-E1 is a family of protein encoder language models from Profluent, announced in November 2025 in 150M, 300M, and 600M parameter sizes. The models can take homologous sequences alongside a query sequence (retrieval augmentation) or run on a single sequence, and Profluent presents them as drop-in replacements for ESM-family encoders.514Fact reviewed Oct 1, 2026
