✨ Why GLiNER2?

🎯 One Model, Four Tasks: Entities, classification, structured data, and relations in a single forward pass
💻 CPU First: Lightning-fast inference on standard hardware—no GPU required
🛡️ Privacy: 100% local processing, zero external dependencies

Installation

pip install gliner2

Usage

Entity Extraction

python

from gliner2 import GLiNER2

# Load the model
extractor = GLiNER2.from_pretrained("fastino/gliner2-multi-v1")

# Extract entities
text = "Apple CEO Tim Cook announced iPhone 15 in Cupertino yesterday."
result = extractor.extract_entities(text, ["company", "person", "product", "location"])

print(result)
# Output: {'entities': {'company': ['Apple'], 'person': ['Tim Cook'], 'product': ['iPhone 15'], 'location': ['Cupertino']}}

Text Classification

python

# Single-label classification
result = extractor.classify_text(
    "This laptop has amazing performance but terrible battery life!",
    {"sentiment": ["positive", "negative", "neutral"]}
)
print(result)
# Output: {'sentiment': 'negative'}

# Multi-label classification
result = extractor.classify_text(
    "Great camera quality, decent performance, but poor battery life.",
    {
        "aspects": {
            "labels": ["camera", "performance", "battery", "display", "price"],
            "multi_label": True,
            "cls_threshold": 0.4
        }
    }
)
print(result)
# Output: {'aspects': ['camera', 'performance', 'battery']}

Structured Data Extraction

python

text = "iPhone 15 Pro Max with 256GB storage, A17 Pro chip, priced at $1199."

result = extractor.extract_json(
    text,
    {
        "product": [
            "name::str::Full product name and model",
            "storage::str::Storage capacity",
            "processor::str::Chip or processor information",
            "price::str::Product price with currency"
        ]
    }
)

print(result)
# Output: {
#     'product': [{
#         'name': 'iPhone 15 Pro Max',
#         'storage': '256GB',
#         'processor': 'A17 Pro chip',
#         'price': '$1199'
#     }]
# }

Multi-Task Schema Composition

python

# Combine all extraction types
schema = (extractor.create_schema()
    .entities({
        "person": "Names of people or individuals",
        "company": "Organization or business names",
        "product": "Products or services mentioned"
    })
    .classification("sentiment", ["positive", "negative", "neutral"])
    .structure("product_info")
        .field("name", dtype="str")
        .field("price", dtype="str")
        .field("features", dtype="list")
)

text = "Apple CEO Tim Cook unveiled the iPhone 15 Pro for $999."
results = extractor.extract(text, schema)

print(results)
# Output: {
#     'entities': {'person': ['Tim Cook'], 'company': ['Apple'], 'product': ['iPhone 15 Pro']},
#     'sentiment': 'positive',
#     'product_info': [{'name': 'iPhone 15 Pro', 'price': '$999', 'features': [...]}]
# }
