    Overview

    Keye-VL 2.0 (30B Mixture-of-Experts with ~3B active params) is Kuaishou's video-first multimodal LLM, built for understanding short-form and long video alongside images and text. It is strong at video question answering, captioning, and temporal reasoning over clips.

    On Mixpeek, a model like Keye-VL works as a captioning/understanding stage in a video pipeline: a fast encoder (V-JEPA 2, VideoPrism, InternVideo2) retrieves candidate clips, then a VLM like Keye-VL generates grounded descriptions or answers questions about the retrieved moments — keeping the expensive VLM off the full corpus.

    Architecture

    Mixture-of-Experts vision-language model (~30B total, ~3B active) with a vision encoder feeding an LLM decoder, instruction-tuned for video and image understanding, captioning, and VQA with temporal reasoning.

    Mixpeek SDK Integration

    import { Mixpeek } from "mixpeek";
    
    const mx = new Mixpeek({ apiKey: "API_KEY" });
    
    // Managed: create a collection over a bucket; Mixpeek runs this model's extractor
    const collection = await mx.collections.create({
      namespace_id: "my-namespace",
      collection_name: "my-collection",
      source: { type: "bucket", bucket_ids: ["bkt_your_bucket"] },
      feature_extractor: {
        feature_extractor_name: "video_description",
        version: "v1",
        parameters: { model_id: "Kwai-Keye/Keye-VL-2.0-30B-A3B" },
      },
    });

    Capabilities

    • Video question answering and captioning
    • Temporal reasoning over short and long clips
    • Image + text multimodal understanding
    • Efficient MoE inference (~3B active params)

    Use Cases on Mixpeek

    Caption and answer questions about retrieved video moments
    Generate searchable descriptions for a video library
    Agent perception over short-form / social video
    VLM rerank/verify stage after fast clip retrieval

    Performance

    Input SizeVideo clips + text prompt
    GPU LatencyVLM-class — seconds per clip; run on retrieved candidates, not the full corpus
    GPU ThroughputBatch dependent
    GPU MemoryModel dependent

    Pair with a fast video encoder for retrieval; reserve the VLM for captioning/QA on shortlisted clips
