RIP #sreenivaasan. Malayalam cinema just wonโ€™t be the same without you. You made us laugh and cry, sometimes in the same movie, spanning multiple decades. A true legend.

I wanted to share the (quick) story on what led us to creating Orion. And as every great product story goes, it was because of our customers. Every customer call followed the same pattern. They'd show up with a specific computer vision problem, we'd know exactly how to solve it

It's been exactly 14 days since we launched our new visual agent, Orion. With the influx of positive responses combined with the holiday season, it's made me even more grateful for my team. For those who don't know, we actually spent longer than planned getting our Orion ready.

Today we're excited to release the Orion Technical Whitepaper โ€“ a 30-page deep dive into how we built the first visual agent that can *see, reason, and act* across images, videos, and documents. @vlmrun's new visual agent goes far beyond frontier VLMs by acting on visual data
