Apollo-7B
No estimate
No hardware requirements for this model
The weights for this model have not been published, so it cannot be downloaded or run on your own hardware at any size. It is reachable only through its provider, and no graphics card changes that.
On record
Full specification
Everything on record for this model. Most of it describes how it was trained rather than how it runs — useful context for judging how much work went into it, and how it compares with models built at a different scale.

- tokens
Our training process comprised three distinct stages: 1. Alignment: In this phase, we trained on a 198K mixture of 50/50 image and video captions. 2. Vision Pretraining: We tuned the encoders using a video-only caption dataset of 396K samples. 3. Supervised Fine-tuning (SFT): We trained on a mixture of text, image, multi-image, and video data, with a total of 3.2 million samples.

What the numbers mean
What this model is
Apollo-7B was published by Meta AI,Stanford University, in United States of America, in December 2024. The organisation is categorised as industry,Academia.
It works in Multimodal, Video, Language, and is recorded as doing video, Visual question answering, Video description, Language modeling/generation.
It builds on SigLIP 400M,Qwen2.5-7B, which is why it shares that model's general shape and size.
This is a closed model: the trained values stayed with whoever produced them, and there is no local version to run.
Answers
Apollo-7B — common questions
Is Apollo-7B open source?
No. Apollo-7B has not had its weights published, so it exists only as a service controlled by its owner.
How many parameters does Apollo-7B have?
Apollo-7B has 7B parameters. That figure is the total, and it is what decides how much memory the model needs — roughly half a gigabyte per billion at the compression most people use.
Who created Apollo-7B?
Apollo-7B was published by Meta AI,Stanford University, based in United States of America, categorised as industry,Academia.
When was Apollo-7B released?
Apollo-7B was published in December 2024. Capability per parameter has improved considerably since, so a newer model of the same size is often the better use of the same hardware.
What is Apollo-7B used for?
Apollo-7B works in Multimodal, Video, Language, and is recorded as handling video, Visual question answering, Video description, Language modeling/generation. These are the areas it was designed around; they describe intent rather than a hard boundary.
What GPU do I need to run Apollo-7B?
None. Apollo-7B is a closed model — its weights were never published, so it cannot be downloaded or run on your own hardware at any price. It is reachable only through its provider.
The other direction
Looking at it from the other side?
This page starts from the model. If you already own a card and want to know everything it will run, start from the hardware instead.
