Aria & Allegro

Rhymes AI’s flagship models, Aria and Allegro, are at the forefront of multimodal AI innovation, each designed to tackle unique challenges in processing diverse data types.

Aria is a Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) model developed by Rhymes AI, specifically designed to handle multimodal inputs like text, images, and video. This open-source model focuses on efficiency and high performance. During inference, Aria activates only 3.9 billion parameters from its total 25.3 billion parameters, making it one of the fastest multimodal AI systems available today. It seamlessly processes diverse data formats seamlessly, leveraging its 64K-long multimodal context window to deliver comprehensive insights. Aria can handle long-form content, such as captioning 256-frame videos in just 10 seconds, with remarkable speed and precision.

Allegro, Rhymes AI’s text-to-video model, introduces new capabilities for creative industries, enabling users to transform text into high-quality videos quickly and efficiently. Allegro is optimized for video generation tasks, with a model size of 3B parameters, and can process short video clips at 720p resolution in a matter of minutes. Its optimized architecture allows for rapid video production, opening up new possibilities for content creators, marketers, and AI researchers alike.

Both models set a new standard for efficiency and performance. Aria outperforms Pixtral 12B and Llama-3.2-12B on several benchmarks, including MMMU and MathVista, while surpassing GPT-4o in handling long video tasks and outshining Gemini 1.5 Flash in document parsing. Allegro, meanwhile, enables rapid video production, reducing traditional production bottlenecks.

Designed to foster collaboration and customization, Aria and Allegro are fully open-source under the Apache 2.0 license.Developers and researchers have full access to the model’s open weights, code, and demos. This openness encourages innovation, empowering the community to fine-tune and optimize Aria for diverse use cases, such as healthcare, content creation, AI research, and customer service.
