Voxtral Mini 1.0 (3B) - 2507

Voxtral Mini is an enhancement of Ministral 3B, incorporating state-of-the-art audio input capabilities while retaining best-in-class text performance. It excels at speech transcription, translation and audio understanding.

Learn more about Voxtral in our blog post here and our research paper.

Key Features

Voxtral builds upon Ministral-3B with powerful audio understanding capabilities.

Dedicated transcription mode: Voxtral can operate in a pure speech transcription mode to maximize performance. By default, Voxtral automatically predicts the source audio language and transcribes the text accordingly
Long-form context: With a 32k token context length, Voxtral handles audios up to 30 minutes for transcription, or 40 minutes for understanding
Built-in Q&A and summarization: Supports asking questions directly through audio. Analyze audio and generate structured summaries without the need for separate ASR and language models
Natively multilingual: Automatic language detection and state-of-the-art performance in the world’s most widely used languages (English, Spanish, French, Portuguese, Hindi, German, Dutch, Italian)
Function-calling straight from voice: Enables direct triggering of backend functions, workflows, or API calls based on spoken user intents
Highly capable at text: Retains the text understanding capabilities of its language model backbone, Ministral-3B

Usage

The model can be used with the following frameworks;

vllm (recommended): See here
Transformers 🤗: See here

Notes:

temperature=0.2 and top_p=0.95 for chat completion (e.g. Audio Understanding) and temperature=0.0 for transcription
Multiple audios per message and multiple user turns with audio are supported
System prompts are not yet supported

vLLM (recommended)

We recommend using this model with vLLM.

Installation

Make sure to install vllm >= 0.10.0, we recommend using uv:

uv pip install -U "vllm[audio]" --system

Doing so should automatically install mistral_common >= 1.8.1.

To check:

python -c "import mistral_common; print(mistral_common.__version__)"

Offline

You can test that your vLLM setup works as expected by cloning the vLLM repo:

git clone https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm && cd vllm

and then running:

python examples/offline_inference/audio_language.py --num-audios 2 --model-type voxtral

Serve

We recommend that you use Voxtral-Small-24B-2507 in a server/client setting.

Spin up a server:

vllm serve mistralai/Voxtral-Mini-3B-2507 --tokenizer_mode mistral --config_format mistral --load_format mistral

Note: Running Voxtral-Mini-3B-2507 on GPU requires ~9.5 GB of GPU RAM in bf16 or fp16.

To ping the client you can use a simple Python snippet. See the following examples.

Audio Instruct

Leverage the audio capabilities of Voxtral-Mini-3B-2507 to chat.

Make sure that your client has mistral-common with audio installed:

pip install --upgrade mistral_common\[audio\]

Python snippet

from mistral_common.protocol.instruct.messages import TextChunk, AudioChunk, UserMessage, AssistantMessage, RawAudio
from mistral_common.audio import Audio
from huggingface_hub import hf_hub_download

# Modify OpenAI's API key and API base to use vLLM's API server.
openai_api_key = "EMPTY"

bcn_file = hf_hub_download("patrickvonplaten/audio_samples", "bcn_weather.mp3", repo_type="dataset")

def file_to_chunk(file: str) -> AudioChunk:
    audio = Audio.from_file(file, strict=False)
    return AudioChunk.from_audio(audio)

text_chunk = TextChunk(text="Which speaker is more inspiring? Why? How are they different from each other?")
user_msg = UserMessage(content=[file_to_chunk(obama_file), file_to_chunk(bcn_file), text_chunk]).to_openai()

print(30 * "=" + "USER 1" + 30 * "=")
print(text_chunk.text)
print("\n\n")

response = client.chat.completions.create(
    model=model,
    messages=[user_msg],
    temperature=0.2,
    top_p=0.95,
)
content = response.choices[0].message.content

print(30 * "=" + "BOT 1" + 30 * "=")
print(content)
print("\n\n")
# The speaker who is more inspiring is the one who delivered the farewell address, as they express
# gratitude, optimism, and a strong commitment to the nation and its citizens. They emphasize the importance of
# self-government and active citizenship, encouraging everyone to participate in the democratic process. In contrast,
# the other speaker provides a factual update on the weather in Barcelona, which is less inspiring as it
# lacks the emotional and motivational content of the farewell address.

# **Differences:**
# - The farewell address speaker focuses on the values and responsibilities of citizenship, encouraging active participation in democracy.
# - The weather update speaker provides factual information about the temperature in Barcelona, without any emotional or motivational content.

Transcription

Voxtral-Mini-3B-2507 has powerful transcription capabilities!

Make sure that your client has mistral-common with audio installed:

pip install --upgrade mistral_common\[audio\]

Python snippet

python

obama_file = hf_hub_download("patrickvonplaten/audio_samples", "obama.mp3", repo_type="dataset")
audio = Audio.from_file(obama_file, strict=False)

audio = RawAudio.from_audio(audio)
req = TranscriptionRequest(model=model, audio=audio, language="en", temperature=0.0).to_openai(exclude=("top_p", "seed"))

response = client.audio.transcriptions.create(**req)
print(response)

Transformers 🤗

Starting with transformers >= 4.54.0 and above, you can run Voxtral natively!
