Abstract: We present Voxtral Mini and Voxtral Small, two multimodal audio chat models.
Voxtral is trained to comprehend both spoken audio and text documents,
achieving state-of-the-art performance across a diverse range of audio
benchmarks, while preserving strong text capabilities. Voxtral Small
outperforms a number of closed-source models, while being small enough to run
locally. A 32K context window enables the model to handle audio files up to 40
minutes in duration and long multi-turn conversations. We also contribute three
benchmarks for evaluating speech understanding models on knowledge and trivia.
Both Voxtral models are released under Apache 2.0 license.
