Model Card for Pixtral-12B-Base-2409
The Pixtral-12B-Base-2409 is a Multimodal Model of 12B parameters plus a 400M parameter vision encoder.
For more details about this model please refer to our release blog post.
Feel free to try it here
Key features
- Natively multimodal, trained with interleaved image and text data
- 12B parameter Multimodal Decoder + 400M parameter Vision Encoder
- Supports variable image sizes
- Leading performance in its weight class on multimodal tasks
- Maintains state-of-the-art performance on text-only benchmarks
- Sequence length: 128k
- License: Apache 2.0

Usage Examples
vLLM (recommended)
We recommend using Pixtral with the vLLM library to implement production-ready inference pipelines with Pixtral.
Installation
Make sure you install vLLM >= v1.6.2:
pip install --upgrade vllm
Also make sure you have mistral_common >= 1.4.4 installed:
pip install --upgrade mistral_common
You can also make use of a ready-to-go docker image.
Example
from vllm import LLM
from vllm.sampling_params import SamplingParams
model_name = "mistralai/Pixtral-12B-Base-2409"
sampling_params = SamplingParams(max_tokens=8192)
llm = LLM(model=model_name, tokenizer_mode="mistral")
prompt = "Describe this image in one sentence."
image_url = "https://picsum.photos/id/237/200/300"
messages = [
{
"role": "user",
"content": [{"type": "text", "text": prompt}, {"type": "image_url", "image_url": {"url": image_url}}]
},
]
outputs = llm.chat(messages, sampling_params=sampling_params)
print(outputs[0].outputs[0].text)
Mistral-inference
We recommend using mistral-inference to quickly try out / "vibe-check" Pixtral.
Install
Make sure to have mistral_inference >= 1.4.1 installed.
pip install mistral_inference --upgrade
Download
from huggingface_hub import snapshot_download
from pathlib import Path
mistral_models_path = Path.home().joinpath('mistral_models', 'Pixtral')
mistral_models_path.mkdir(parents=True, exist_ok=True)
snapshot_download(repo_id="mistralai/Pixtral-12B-Base-2409", allow_patterns=["params.json", "consolidated.safetensors", "tekken.json"], local_dir=mistral_models_path)
Python
You can also run the model in a Python shell as follows.
from mistral_inference.transformer import Transformer
from mistral_inference.generate import generate
from mistral_common.tokens.tokenizers.mistral import MistralTokenizer
from mistral_common.protocol.instruct.messages import UserMessage, TextChunk, ImageURLChunk
from mistral_common.protocol.instruct.request import CompletionRequest
tokenizer = MistralTokenizer.from_file(f"{mistral_models_path}/tekken.json")
model = Transformer.from_folder(mistral_models_path)
url = "https://huggingface.co/datasets/patrickvonplaten/random_img/resolve/main/yosemite.png"
prompt = "The above image presents a"
completion_request = CompletionRequest(prompt=[UserMessage(content=[ImageURLChunk(image_url=url), TextChunk(text=prompt)])])
encoded = tokenizer.encode_chat_completion(completion_request)
images = encoded.images
tokens = encoded.tokens
out_tokens, _ = generate([tokens], model, images=[images], max_tokens=256, temperature=0.35, eos_id=tokenizer.instruct_tokenizer.tokenizer.eos_id)
result = tokenizer.decode(out_tokens[0])
print(result)
Limitations
The Pixtral model does not have any moderation mechanisms. We're looking forward to engaging with the community on ways to make the model finely respect guardrails, allowing for deployment in environments requiring moderated outputs.
