Open-source CLIP trained on 2B image-text pairs at giant scale

OpenCLIP is the open-source reproduction of CLIP by the LAION/ML Foundations community. This ViT-bigG/14 variant was trained on LAION-2B (2 billion image-text pairs), achieving up to 85.4% ImageNet zero-shot accuracy, surpassing OpenAI's original CLIP.
On Mixpeek, OpenCLIP provides the highest-accuracy open-weight visual embeddings for text-to-image and image-to-image retrieval at scale.
Architecture
Vision Transformer (ViT-bigG/14) with ~1.8B vision parameters. Trained with contrastive learning on LAION-2B dataset for 39B samples seen. Produces 1280-dim embeddings projected to shared vision-text space.
Mixpeek SDK Integration
// No extractor parameter takes a Hugging Face model id (checked against
// GET /v1/discovery/extractors, which returns 13), so CLIP-ViT-bigG-14-laion2B-39B-b160k runs
// on your side and the output is upserted through POST
// /v1/namespaces/{namespace_id}/documents/upsert. On Enterprise the other
// path is to upload the weights instead: POST /v1/namespaces/{id}/models
// accepts the huggingface format and a custom plugin loads them.
