Trained by Tencent (Hunyuan / Hy), in the WeVisOne-VL family WeVisOne-VL-4B · all its cousins, older versions

Assessment. A small Apache 2.0 perception model that finds, counts, reads and cuts out what you name in an image, and says None when it isn't there. Boxes and points run in vLLM, SGLang or Transformers. Masks and mattes need Tencent's package and a pickle file. Two weeks old, with no questions answered yet and no safety results.

From our research 12 facts checked against the vendor's pages

Surface graded: The open weights at huggingface.co/tencent/WeVisOne-VL-2B, read from the model card, the files and their metadata, the config, the chat template, the commit history, the README of Tencent's GitHub repository for the model and the runtimes' own code at their latest releases on 10 November 2026. Tencent's company facts come from our other Tencent listings. The paper, the cookbooks and the package's code weren't read. Nothing was downloaded or run
Model: 2,441,744,384 parameters in the safetensors file, plus a 9,609,764-parameter pixel decoder in mask_decoder.pt. Qwen3VLForConditionalGeneration with a 28-layer language model, built on Qwen3-VL by WeChat Vision at Tencent
Files: One safetensors file in BF16 (4.88 GB), mask_decoder.pt (0.04 GB, a PyTorch pickle), chat_template.jinja, config, processor and tokenizer files and the LICENSE. No Python. Hugging Face lists a SHA-256 for the large files
Licence: Apache 2.0 in the card's metadata, with the LICENSE file in the repository. The card's licence section speaks of Tencent's code and says third-party components keep their own licences
Runtimes: Tencent documents its own Python package with a Transformers backend and a vLLM backend. Released Transformers 5.22.2, vLLM 0.33.0 and SGLang 0.5.23 carry the Qwen3-VL architecture, which gives the text output: boxes, points, counts and OCR. Masks and mattes need the pixel decoder, so Tencent's package
Context: Not stated by Tencent. config.json carries Qwen3-VL's 262,144 positions and the tokenizer config says 8,192. It reads one image a turn, at up to 1,960 visual tokens in the README's results
Hardware: No memory figure on the card. The files are 4.92 GB in BF16. The package takes a device of auto, cuda, npu or cpu
Training data: The README describes a data engine that finds concepts from a knowledge graph, localises them with expert models checked by a vision-language model, and extends boxes to masks and mattes, with over 100 million images annotated. No sources named and no cut-off
Tasks: Open-vocabulary detection, referring localisation, pointing, counting by box or by point, OCR and finding given text, referring segmentation and promptable alpha matting. One image and one turn at a time
Languages: Not stated on the card or in the README
Input and output: One image with a task and a query (a list of categories, a referring expression, or text to find). The model writes boxes and points as coordinate tokens from 0 to 1000, None when the target is absent, and an OBJ token after each box that the decoder turns into a binary mask or an alpha matte
Recommended settings: generation_config.json sets temperature 0.7, top_p 0.8 and top_k 20. The README's results use greedy decoding with at most 1,960 visual tokens an image, and min_pixels and max_pixels are settable

Facts verified 10 November 2026 from vendor docs, repositories and package registries. JSON · Markdown

Strengths

Seven perception tasks in one model, from boxes to alpha mattes
Returns None for a target that isn't in the image
Apache 2.0, ungated
Each task's input and output is documented
4.88 GB in BF16, so it fits a 8 GB machine

Weaknesses

The pixel decoder ships as a pickle file
Masks and mattes need Tencent's package from GitHub
No quantised build from Tencent
One image and one turn at a time, no video
No reply from Tencent on the repository's discussions
No context length, languages, safety results or data sources on the card

Before you call it notes for agents

Use Tencent's package: WeVisOneVL("tencent/WeVisOne-VL-2B", backend="vllm") then model.predict(image, task=..., query=...)
Tasks are detection, referring, point, count_box, count_point, ocr, ocr_grounding, segmentation and matting
A None answer means the target isn't in the image. Treat it as a result, not an error
mask_decoder.pt is a pickle. Load it only from the tencent repository, and check its SHA-256 against the Hub's
Send one image a turn. Video grids are rejected by the decoder
The card says it isn't for identifying individuals or for high-impact decisions on its own

Terms and privacy, as read

Terms of service not read yet

TL;DR Not read by us yet, so nothing here is checked. The document is published and scores 4 of 10 until we read it.

The document

Privacy policy none to read

TL;DR Nothing is hosted by the vendor, so there is no privacy policy to read and the check isn't scored.

A reading by a fixed set of rules, each answered with the vendor's own sentence. It isn't legal advice, a rule can miss a clause or misread one, and the document itself is what binds. How it's read and scored.

The card names WeChat Vision, Tencent Inc. The domain's registration date is carried from our other Tencent listings.

Nothing is hosted under this listing, so the model licence stands in for terms of service and no privacy policy is scored.

The changelog is the commit history.

Tencent's Security Response Center takes reports company-wide, per the Hy3 listing; nothing on the card links it.

Checked 2026-11-10 against the vendor's own pages and the domain registry. Provenance is half of Transparency & trust.

Score breakdown methodology v0.7 · October 2026 research run

Assessed on 10 November 2026 from public evidence, against the published checklist. Confidence low. Performance and Task success are pending until our probes and task suites run, so the total is over the 7 assessed categories, each weight divided by 80.

Category	Weight this run	Score	Points
Capabilitynot scored in this run	35%pending	pending	n/a
Reachchecked 10 November 2026	25%38.5	70	26.9
Memory 30, the only build from Tencent is the BF16 safetensors file with its decoder, 4.92 GB, and 4.92 GB × 1.2 = 5.9 GB, within 16 GB. No runtime library has a build. Runtimes 15, the architecture is Qwen3VLForConditionalGeneration, which vLLM 0.33.0, SGLang 0.5.23 and Transformers 5.22.2 run from the safetensors file, three at 5 each. Builds 0, Tencent publishes the BF16 weights only. Terms 15, Apache 2.0 in the card's metadata with the LICENSE file in the repository, and nothing added. Download 10, the Hub API reports gated false on 10 November 2026, so the files download with no account and nothing to accept. Hosted 0, Hugging Face maps no inference provider to it. 30 + 15 + 0 + 15 + 10 + 0 = 70.
Riskchecked 10 November 2026	20%30.8	55	16.9
File safety 15, the backbone is safetensors, but mask_decoder.pt, a PyTorch pickle the card calls a required component, sits beside it. Provenance 15, the files sit in the tencent organisation, which Tencent's GitHub repository for the model links to (10), and the Hub gives a SHA-256 for the large files (5). Safety evaluation 0, no safety results on the card or in the README. Agent guidance 5, General cautions: the card says the release is for research, isn't for autonomous high-impact decisions or identifying individuals, and lists where masks go wrong. Licence risk 15, Apache 2.0 with no use policy, no threshold and no right to change the terms. Security programme 5, Tencent's Security Response Center takes vulnerability reports company-wide, as the Hy3 listing records (5). 15 + 15 + 0 + 5 + 15 + 5 = 55.
Agent interfacechecked 10 November 2026	10%15.4	70	10.8
Chat template 20, chat_template.jinja in the repository (5,292 characters), Qwen3-VL's template. Tool-calling format 25, Read for a perception model as what it takes and returns. Trained tool calling 10, Read for a perception model as the inputs it was trained to use. Structured output 15, Read for a perception model as typed outputs. Reasoning control 0, the card says it writes structured output directly with no chain-of-thought reasoning. Context 0, Tencent states no context length for it. 20 + 25 + 10 + 15 + 0 + 0 = 70.

Model card 8, Intended use, limitations and the architecture are on the card. Training data 5, A general description in the README of a data engine and over 100 million annotated images, with no sources named and no cut-off. Last change 20, the last commit, on 28 October 2026, put the weights back in BF16, 13 days before this check. Responsiveness 0, the one discussion that isn't a pull request (23 October 2026) has no reply from a tencent member, counted on 10 November by author flags and dates with a script, text not read. Version policy 5, A first release. File health 10, Config, template and card agree on the Qwen3-VL classes, and the card names mask_decoder.pt as required and it's there. 8 + 5 + 20 + 0 + 5 + 10 = 48.

Graded 61 C methodology v0.7

Fix list 14 items, the biggest gain first

Everything this grade says the listing lacks, from the reasons above, the checklist, the provenance checks, the deductions, what we couldn't check and what the review panel asked for, with the steps, ready to paste into a coding agent working on WeVisOne-VL-2B. A fix counts at the next check, once it's public.

What we couldn't check

It's a perception model listed among chat models, since there's no category for vision models that return boxes and masks
Runtimes credits vLLM, SGLang and Transformers for the backbone. The pixel-level tasks run only through Tencent's package, which a stricter reading wouldn't credit
File safety is 15 for a pickle beside the weights. The package that loads it lives on GitHub, not in the model repository, so the 10 for repository code wasn't taken off
Terms is 15 on the metadata and the LICENSE file. The card's own sentence speaks of code
Capability is pending because no independent results were looked up on the day
unchecked on 10 November: the paper (arXiv 2610.31329), the cookbooks, the package's code, the evaluation README, GitHub issues, and Tencent's security pages, read for the Hy3 listing

Probe metrics

Not measured yet. Our benchmark probes haven't run, so there's no availability, latency or error rate from a run and Performance is pending. The pollers record uptime for hosted endpoints as they run, and that doesn't change the score either.

Pricing & changes

Free Free Free to download and use under Apache 2.0. Running it yourself costs the hardware, 4.88 GB in BF16 (checked 2026-11-10).

No hosted version of these weights has a price on OpenRouter, so what a task costs is your own hardware and power. What tasks cost on hosted models.
