Tether Launches On-Device Medical AI Model With 1.7B Parameters

Tether launched QVAC MedPsy, a medical AI model family led by a 1.7 billion-parameter version designed to run on phones and other local devices. Tether said the 1.7 billion-parameter model beat Google’s MedGemma-4B and scored above MedGemma-27B on HealthBench Hard. The 4 billion-parameter model used about 909 tokens per response versus 2,953 for comparable systems, and both models ship as quantized GGUF files for consumer hardware.
