Long context

RWKV-7 Goose 2.9B has model metadata, but missing tracked provider pricing keeps it from being a default production pick.

Decision context: Long context task fit, 0 tracked provider routes, and research from 2026-05-25.

Use it for

  • Teams evaluating long context
  • Workloads that can use a Infinite context window

Do not use it for

  • Cost-sensitive launches that need sourced token pricing
  • Vision or document-understanding workloads
  • Strict JSON or tool-calling flows

About

RWKV-7 Goose 2.9B is the largest released model in the RWKV-7 Goose World3 series. Built on the seventh-generation RWKV architecture with the Generalized Delta Rule and dynamic state evolution, it achieves competitive benchmark performance against transformer models of equivalent scale. Trained on 3.1 trillion tokens from the World v3 multilingual corpus (100+ languages, BF16). As a pure recurrent architecture, it requires constant O(1) memory during inference (no KV cache) and processes sequences in linear O(n) time. Licensed Apache 2.0.

RWKV-7 Goose 2.9B has a Infinite context window.
