Frequently Asked Questions

Gemma 4 is distilled from the Gemini 3 architecture and released by Google as an open-source model. While Gemini is a closed-source API product, Gemma 4 can be deployed locally or used for free online right here on Gemma4 Tools.
Yes, completely free. Gemma4 Tools is powered by Google's Gemini API free tier, so you can experience every Gemma 4 feature without signing up or paying anything.
All data is processed through Google's official Gemma 4 API. Gemma4 Tools does not store any files you upload or conversations you have — everything is processed in real time and discarded.
Yes, Gemma 4 supports over 140 languages including Chinese. However, Gemma 4's Chinese capabilities are slightly behind the Qwen series — we recommend testing both models to find the best fit for your use case.
The Gemma 4 27B MoE model is faster at inference (only ~4B parameters active), making it ideal for everyday chat and lightweight tasks. The Gemma 4 31B Dense model delivers higher overall quality, best for complex reasoning and deep analysis.
We recommend Ollama for one-click setup — run `ollama run gemma4:27b-it-q4_K_M` to start Gemma 4 locally. You can also download GGUF-format Gemma 4 models from HuggingFace for manual configuration. See the deployment guide above for VRAM requirements.
