Janus-Pro
Janus-Pro unifies language-based multimodal understanding and image generation in a single autoregressive Transformer. It separates the visual encoding pathways for image understanding and generation to reduce conflicts between the two objectives. The public 1B and 7B models answer image-grounded questions and generate images from text, so they qualify as language-capable multimodal models. This page represents both routine size tiers. The model card distinguishes MIT-licensed code from the custom DeepSeek Model License governing the weights.
