What it is

HyperCLOVA X is Naver's Korean-language model family. In December 2025 NAVER Cloud open-sourced HyperCLOVA X SEED 8B Omni, described as Korea's first native omnimodal foundation model, and SEED 32B Think, a reasoning model, as the first output of Korea's Independent AI Foundation Model initiative. Earlier steps included the HyperCLOVA X THINK reasoning model (June 2025) and a free commercial-use open release in April 2025.

Where this information comes from

Details come from Naver's press releases; no newer 2026 flagship was confirmed in the sources used. Release dates, context windows and benchmark scores are vendor-reported unless stated, and harnesses differ between labs, so treat the numbers as indicative.

Notable traits

  • Optimised for Korean language and culture.
  • Open SEED releases for commercial use.
  • Part of a national foundation-model programme.
