HunyuanOCR
OCR expert VLM powered by Hunyuan's native multimodal architecture
HunyuanOCR is an open-source, end-to-end OCR (optical character recognition) Vision-Language Model (VLM) developed by Tencent‑Hunyuan. It’s designed to unify the entire OCR pipeline, detection, recognition, layout parsing, information extraction, translation, and even subtitle or structured output generation, into a single model inference instead of a cascade of separate tools. Despite being fairly lightweight (about 1 billion parameters), it delivers state-of-the-art performance across a wide variety of OCR tasks, outperforming many traditional OCR systems and even other multimodal models on benchmark suites. HunyuanOCR handles complex documents: multi-column layouts, tables, mathematical formulas, mixed languages, handwritten or stylized fonts, receipts, tickets, and even video-frame subtitles. The project provides code, pretrained weights, and inference instructions, making it feasible to deploy locally or on a server, and to integrate with applications.
