ERNIE 4.5 VL 424B A47B
VerifiedBaidu's multimodal model for integrated image and text processing.
About ERNIE 4.5 VL 424B A47B
This model belongs to Baidu's ERNIE series and combines vision and language modalities. It accepts both images and text as inputs while maintaining a substantial context capacity. The architecture remains proprietary with no open weights available.
Its design emphasizes unified processing of visual and textual data for coherent outputs. The large context window enables handling of extended documents paired with images. Users apply it in scenarios requiring joint analysis of visual content and surrounding text.
Typical usage includes content generation that references both images and documents. It suits enterprise workflows where multimodal understanding adds value without public model access.

Quick start
OpenRouter's API is OpenAI-compatible — most SDKs work by just swapping the base URL. Only the model slug changes between models.
import OpenAI from "openai";
const client = new OpenAI({
baseURL: "https://openrouter.ai/api/v1",
apiKey: process.env.OPENROUTER_API_KEY,
});
const completion = await client.chat.completions.create({
model: "baidu/ernie-4.5-vl-424b-a47b",
messages: [{ role: "user", content: "Hello!" }],
});
console.log(completion.choices[0].message.content);Model slug: baidu/ernie-4.5-vl-424b-a47b
