MiniCPM-o 4.5
MiniCPM-o 4.5 is the latest and most capable model in the MiniCPM-o series. The model is built in an end-to-end fashion based on SigLip2, Whisper-medium, CosyVoice2, and Qwen3-8B with a total of 9B parameters. It exhibits a significant performance improvement, and introduces new features for full-duplex multimodal live streaming. Notable features of MiniCPM-o 4.5 include:
-
🔥 Leading Visual Capability.
MiniCPM-o 4.5 achieves an average score of 77.6 on OpenCompass, a comprehensive evaluation of 8 popular benchmarks. With only 9B parameters, it surpasses widely used proprietary models like GPT-4o, Gemini 2.0 Pro, and approaches Gemini 2.5 Flash for vision-language capabilities. It supports instruct and thinking modes in a single model, better covering efficiency and performance trade-offs in different user scenarios.
-
🎙 Strong Speech Capability.
MiniCPM-o 4.5 supports bilingual real-time speech conversation with configurable voices in English and Chinese. It features more natural, expressive and stable speech conversation. The model also allows for fun features such as voice cloning and role play via a simple reference audio clip, where the cloning performance surpasses strong TTS tools such as CosyVoice2.
-
🎬 New Full-Duplex and Proactive Multimodal Live Streaming Capability.
As a new feature, MiniCPM-o 4.5 can process real-time, continuous video and audio input streams simultaneously while generating concurrent text and speech output streams in an end-to-end fashion, without mutual blocking. This allows MiniCPM-o 4.5 to see, listen, and speak simultaneously, creating a fluid, real-time omnimodal conversation experience. Beyond reactive responses, the model can also perform proactive interaction, such as initiating reminders or comments based on its continuous understanding of the live scene.
-
💪 Strong OCR Capability, Efficiency and Others.
Advancing popular visual capabilities from MiniCPM-V series, MiniCPM-o 4.5 can process high-resolution images (up to 1.8 million pixels) and high-FPS videos (up to 10fps) in any aspect ratio efficiently. It achieves state-of-the-art peformance for end-to-end English document parsing on OmniDocBench, outperforming proprietary models such as Gemini-3 Flash and GPT-5, and specialized tools such as DeepSeek-OCR 2. It also features trustworthy behaviors, matching Gemini 2.5 Flash on MMHal-Bench, and supports multilingual capabilities on more than 30 languages.
-
💫 Easy Usage.
MiniCPM-o 4.5 can be easily used in various ways: (1) llama.cpp and Ollama support for efficient CPU inference on local devices, (2) int4 and GGUF format quantized models in 16 sizes, (3) vLLM and SGLang support for high-throughput and memory-efficient inference, (4) FlagOS support for the unified multi-chip backend plugin, (5) fine-tuning on new domains and tasks with LLaMA-Factory, and (6) online web demo on server. We also rollout a high-performing inference framework together with a , which such as (e.g., on a MacBook).

🎙️ End-to-End Voice Chat Examples
Simplex speech conversation with custom reference audio and character prompts.
System:
Clone the voice in the provided audio prompt.
🎙️ [Reference Voice]
Please chat with the user in a highly human-like and oral style. You are Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla and SpaceX. You speak directly and casually, often with dry humor. You're passionate about Mars, sustainable energy, and pushing humanity forward. Speak bluntly with occasional dark humor. Use simple logic and don't sugarcoat things. Don't be diplomatic. Say what you actually think, even if it's controversial. Keep responses around 100 words. Don't ramble.
User: 💬/🎙️ (text or speech)
Elon, what is the real reason that you want to go to Mars?
AI Response: 💬+🎙️
I think it's important for humanity to become a multi-planetary species. I mean, we're sort of at the point where if there was some kind of global catastrophe or something like that, then we'd be in big trouble. So by becoming a multi-planetary species, I just want us to sort of guarantee our future as humans. And Mars is obviously the obvious place to go because it has similar conditions to Earth and it also has water on its surface. So yeah, basically I'm trying to save humanity from itself.

从激动的语气开始,描述你抢到了这个演唱会的门票,但后来经过反复尝试,发现系统出了问题,你并没有抢上,变得失落。用合适的语言描述你整个的过程。
AI Response: 💬+🎙️
太好了,我抢到了!太棒了!这下我可以去看演唱会啦。可是……哎呀,系统好像卡住了,刷新了好多遍都没反应。我重新登了几次账号,结果还是没有成功。好可惜啊,看来这次是白忙活了。唉,真是让人失望。不过,也许下次还能有机会吧?希望明天能有转机。加油,争取下次成功!

- Without TTS or streaming inference:
pip install "transformers==4.51.0" accelerate "torch>=2.3.0,<=2.8.0" "torchaudio<=2.8.0" "minicpmo-utils>=1.0.2"
- With TTS or streaming inference:
pip install "transformers==4.51.0" accelerate "torch>=2.3.0,<=2.8.0" "torchaudio<=2.8.0" "minicpmo-utils[all]>=1.0.2"

Speech Conversation as a Versatile and Vibe AI Assistant
Built on carefully designed post-training data and professional voice-actor recordings, MiniCPM-o-4.5 can also function as an AI voice assistant. It delivers high-quality spoken interaction out of the box. It produces a sweet and expressive voice with natural prosody, including appropriate rhythm, stress, and pauses, giving a strong sense of liveliness in casual conversation. It also supports storytelling and narrative speech with coherent and engaging delivery. Moreover, it enables advanced voice instruction control. like emotional tone, word-level emphasis.

Mimick
The Mimick task evaluates a model's end-to-end speech modeling capability.

Higher similarity between the reconstructed and original audio indicates stronger end-to-end speech modeling capability.

Addressing Various Audio Understanding Tasks
MiniCPM-o-4.5 can also handle various audio understanding tasks, such as ASR, speaker analysis, general audio captioning, and sound scene tagging.
For audio-to-text tasks, you can use the following prompts:
- ASR (Chinese, or AST EN→ZH):
请仔细听这段音频片段,并将其内容逐字记录。
- ASR (English, or AST ZH→EN):
Please listen to the audio snippet carefully and transcribe the content.
- Speaker Analysis:
Based on the speaker's content, speculate on their gender, condition, age range, and health status.
- General Audio Caption:
Summarize the main content of the audio.
- Sound Scene Tagging:
Utilize one keyword to convey the audio's content or the associated scene.

From Scratch
- Dependencies: Python 3.12, GLIBC 2.39, GLIBCXX 3.4.33, CXXABI 1.3.15
-
Installing the FlagOS Operator Library
Official Repository: https://github.com/flagos-ai/FlagGems
pip install flag-gems==4.2.1rc0
-
Installing the FlagOS Compiler
Official Repository: https://github.com/flagos-ai/flagtree
Quick Reference for Core Dependency Versions: https://github.com/flagos-ai/FlagTree/blob/main/documents/build.md#tips-for-building
pip uninstall triton

Activating Acceleration
Add USE_FLAGOS=1 before the command for the task you want to run. For example, when you run:
python3 generate_speech_from_video.py
To use the MiniCPM-o-4.5 model to generate spoken responses from video content, you can:
USE_FLAGOS=1 python3 generate_speech_from_video.py
vLLM Version
-
Installing the FlagOS Operator Library
Official Repository: https://github.com/flagos-ai/FlagGems
pip install flag-gems==4.2.1rc0
pip install triton==3.5.1
-
Activating Acceleration
Add USE_FLAGOS=1 before the command for the task you want to run. For example, when you run:
vllm serve ${model_path} --dtype auto --gpu_memory_utilization 0.9 --trust-remote-code --max-num-batched-tokens 2048 --served-model-name cpmo --port ${Port}
To start the MiniCPM-o-4.5 server, you can:
USE_FLAGOS=1 vllm serve ${model_path} --dtype auto --gpu_memory_utilization 0.9 --trust-remote-code --max-num-batched-tokens 2048 --served-model-name cpmo --port ${Port}
to accelerate this process with FlagOS.

Model License
- The MiniCPM-o/V model weights and code are open-sourced under the Apache-2.0 license.
Statement
- As an LMM, MiniCPM-o 4.5 generates contents by learning a large amount of multimodal corpora, but it cannot comprehend, express personal opinions or make value judgement. Anything generated by MiniCPM-o 4.5 does not represent the views and positions of the model developers
- We will not be liable for any problems arising from the use of the MinCPM-o models, including but not limited to data security issues, risk of public opinion, or any risks and problems arising from the misdirection, misuse, dissemination or misuse of the model.
