What granite-vision-3.3 is

granite-vision-3.3-2b Model Summary: Granite-vision-3.3-2b is a compact and efficient vision-language model, specifically designed for visual document understanding, enabling automated content extraction from tables, charts, infographics, plots, diagrams, and more. Granite-vision-3.3-2b introduces several novel experimental features such as image segmentation, doctags generation, and multi-page support (see Experimental Capabilities for more details) and offers enhanced safety when compared to earlier Granite vision models. The model was trained on a meticulously curated instruction-following data, comprising diverse public and synthetic datasets tailored to support a wide range of document understanding and general image tasks. Granite-vision-3.3-2b was trained by fine-tuning a Granite large language model with both image and text modalities. Evaluations: We compare the performance of granite-vision-3.3-2b with previous versions of granite-vision models. Evaluations were done using the standard llms-eval benchmark and spanned multiple public benchmarks, with particular emphasis on document understanding tasks while also including general visual question-answering benchmarks. - Paper: Granite Vision: a lightweight, open-source multimodal model for enterprise Intelligence. Note that the paper describes Granite Vision 3.2. Granite Vision 3.3 shares most of the technical underpinnings with Granite 3.2. However, there are several enhancements in terms of new and improved vision encoder, many new high quality datasets for training, and several new experimental capabilities. - Release Date: Jun 11th, 2025 - License: Apache 2.0 Supported Input Format: Currently the model supports English instructions and images (png, jpeg) as input format. Intended Use: The model is intended to be used in enterprise applications that involve processing visual and text data. In particular, the model is well-suited for a range of visual document understanding tasks, such as analyzing tables and charts, performing optical character recognition (OCR), and answering questions based on document content. Additionally, its capabilities extend to general image understanding, enabling it to be a

Using it via the API

Call it like any OpenAI endpoint

Once AxForge deploys granite-vision-3-3 for you, it answers on the OpenAI-compatible API — the same base URL and keys as every other model. (granite-vision-3-3 below is illustrative; you get the exact model name on deployment.)
