MiniCPM-V-4.6

A Pocket-Sized MLLM for Ultra-Efficient Image and Video Understanding on Your Phone GitHub | CookBook | Demo | Feishu (Lark) News [2026.05.17] ⭐️⭐️⭐️ We release the API service of MiniCPM-V 4.6, with a **public free API key** together! Try it now. MiniCPM-V 4.6 MiniCPM-V 4.6** is our most edge-deployment-friendly model to date. The model is built based on SigLIP2-400M and the Qwen3.5-0.8B LLM. It inherits the strong single-image, multi-image, and video understanding capabilities of MiniCPM-V family, while significantly improving computation efficiency. It also introduces mixed 4x/16x visual token compression. Notable features of MiniCPM-V 4.6 include: 🔥 **Leading Foundation Capability.** MiniCPM-V 4.6 scores 13 on the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index benchmark, outperforming Qwen3.5-0.8B's score of 10 with 19x fewer token cost, and Qwen3.5-0.8B-Thinking's score of 11 with 43x fewer token cost. It also surpasses the larger Ministral 3 3B (score of 11). 💪 **Strong Multimodal Capability.** MiniCPM-V 4.6 outperforms Qwen3.5-0.8B on most vision-language understanding tasks, and reaches Qwen3.5 2B-level capability on many benchmarks including OpenCompass, RefCOCO, HallusionBench, MUIRBench, and OCRBench. 🚀 **Ultra-Efficient Architecture.** Based on the latest technique in LLaVA-UHD v4, MiniCPM-V 4.6 reduces the visual encoding computation FLOPs by more than 50%. It enables MiniCPM-V 4.6 to achieve better efficiency to even smaller models, achieving ~1.5x token throughput compared to Qwen3.5-0.8B. It also supports mixed 4x/16x visual token compression rate, allowing flexible switching between accuracy and speed. 📱 **Broad Mobile Platform Coverage.** MiniCPM-V 4.6 can be deployed across all three mainstream mobile platforms — iOS, Android, and HarmonyOS. With every edge adaptation code open-sourced, developers can reproduce the on-device experience in just a few steps. 🛠️ **Developer Friendly.** MiniCPM-V 4.6 is adapted to inference frameworks such as vLLM, SGLang, ll
