Apple releases LensVLM 9B, a VLM that skims long documents like a book
apolinariosteps · x · 2026-09-24
Apple has dropped LensVLM 9B on Hugging Face, a novel vision-language model that reads long documents the way you skim a book: it glances at every page as a tiny image, then only opens the pages likely to hold the answer.
It's available to try on Hugging Face Spaces.
