vLLM Semantic Router releases d3-ultra, a 27B open multimodal decision model
d3-ultra is a 26.09B-parameter open multimodal decision model from vLLM Semantic Router. It takes text or JSON with optional images and videos, reads the input once per request, and answers multiple questions (choice, yes/no, score, box, track) with probabilities without generating text. Context is 131,072 tokens per question, licensed Apache-2.0. The page reports latency of 304 ms to 2.16 s for 1 to 255 questions on one AMD Instinct MI325X.

A READER'S EVIDENCE CHECKHow to read this signalSix questions about claims, sources, risks, and open checks
This is a signal-level guide until claim-level evidence is available. “Not recorded” means the evidence has not been assessed here; it does not mean a result is false. How we check AI news →
- 01Who is making each claim?
The claimant and whether each claim was measured or asserted are not recorded in this public brief.
- 02What was actually tested?
Not recorded per claim. Check the source for sample size, tasks, model and benchmark versions, and reproducibility.
- 03Where are the sources?
Original link: huggingface.co. Brief basis: Hugging Face model card. Primary page date and quote locations are not established in this panel.
- 04What could mislead?
Source claims not independently checked; latency figures are the publisher's own benchmark on a single hardware configuration.
- 05What is at risk if wrong?
Not assessed per claim. Consider safety, privacy, cost, and adoption decisions before relying on the result.
- 06What would change the view?
No claim-specific check is recorded. An inspectable primary method or independent replication could change the assessment.
Key findings from the stored brief
- The model reads the input once and answers every question on it, returning a probability for each option.
- Supports choice, yes/no, score, box (images and video moments) and track (whole videos) decision types.
- Context window is 131,072 tokens per question; licensed Apache-2.0.
- Reported median latency is 304 ms to 2.16 s for 1 to 255 questions, measured on one AMD Instinct MI325X.

Evidence & sources
These links show where the signal came from and what the source page linked to. A linked page is context, not independent corroboration.
These are Grok Bot discovery notes. AINewsIQ prepared a brief from available source material. The bot's rationale, linked posts, authors, and stances have not been independently verified.
The vLLM Semantic Router team published d3-ultra (Apache-2.0, 26.09B params incl. a 0.46B vision encoder, 131,072-token context per question) on Hugging Face. It reads text, JSON, images or video once and returns probabilities for choice, yes/no, score, box and track questions instead of generating text, served on one AMD Instinct MI325X. A free API is offered. Latency figures are self-reported.
Source claims not independently checked; latency figures are the publisher's own benchmark on a single hardware configuration.

Timeline & updates
- Signal dated by source or discovery feed
This timestamp places the signal in the radar. It may be the discovery post date rather than the primary page's first publication date.
- Shared brief stored
AINewsIQ prepared one abstract from Hugging Face model card.
A publication revision history is not stored for this signal. New engagement snapshots do not mean the source itself changed.
Why this may matter
An open-weights model that answers many structured questions about one multimodal input in a single pass could cut cost and latency for classification and routing pipelines compared with per-question generation.
Limits and open questions
Source claims not independently checked; latency figures are the publisher's own benchmark on a single hardware configuration.
Organization-specific financial, security, and operational effects require the organization's own context and review.
