⚠️ This repository contains the latest version of Moondream 2, our previous generation model. The latest version of Moondream is Moondream 3 (Preview). Moondream is a small vision language model designed to run efficiently everywhere. Website / Demo / GitHub This repository contains the latest (2025-06-21) release of Moondream 2, as well as historical releases. The model is updated frequently, so we recommend specifying a revision as shown below if you're using it in a production application. 2025-06-21 (full release notes) Introduces a new step-by-step reasoning mode that explicitly grounds reasoning in spatial positions within the image before answering, leading to more precise visual interpretation (e.g., chart median calculations, accurate counting). Enable with reasoning=True in the query skill to trade off speed vs. accuracy. Uses reinforcement learning on higher-quality bounding-box annotations to reduce object clumping and improve fine-grained…

Compatibility and lineage
Language coverage was not reported.
Base-model lineage was not included.
Parameter count is not a RAM/VRAM requirement. Check precision, quantization, context length and runtime compatibility in the model card; no hardware or API-cost claim is inferred here.
Use and evaluate
Check license terms and access requirements first. Review the model card’s documented loading instructions, evaluations and safety limitations. Benchmark scores are not imported by this directory, and popularity is not an accuracy ranking.
No model weights are downloaded or executed by AltAPIs. Never enable remote model code without reviewing it.
