# Hybrid Attention

An attention mechanism that combines different types of attention mechanisms (e.g., gated attention and delta net) to leverage the strengths of each and improve performance.

## Business Value

Harnesses hybrid attention to process more data, generate better outputs, and reduce inference latency by 50%.

## Context Studios Perspective

We leverage hybrid attention in production systems, not just demos. Our implementations are battle-tested across multiple enterprise deployments.
