Palmyra X4 (palmyra-x-004) is a closed-weights language model from Writer, released October 2024. Licence: proprietary.

Catalogue identity notes

Comparison-only. Writer's Palmyra X4, evaluated under the model string 'palmyra-x-004' by BFCL (entry 'palmyra-x-004 (FC)', Organization 'Writer', Model Link writer.com/engineering/actions-with-palmyra-x-004/) and Galileo (row 'palmyra-x-004', Vendor 'Writer'). That linked Writer post is titled 'Introducing actions with Palmyra X4' (Sam Julien, October 9, 2024), tying the string to Palmyra X4. Writer's docs (dev.writer.com/home/models.md, observed 2026-10-09) list Palmyra X4 with API model ID `palmyra-x4` (Bedrock writer.palmyra-x4-v1:0, 128k context, $2.50/$10.00 per 1M tokens), deprecated 2026-12-14; no Writer page states that `palmyra-x4` serves the same checkpoint as the 'palmyra-x-004' id the evaluators called, so no run route or price is attached. Proposed so its BFCL v3, BFCL V4 and Galileo v1 rows (three multi-model runs) count. New provider string 'Writer' (no logo yet).
