Researchers have introduced MOSS-VL, a novel family of open vision-language models designed for real-time interaction. The model's architecture allows it to perceive visual input while speaking, utilizing gated cross-attention and a synthesized interaction corpus for training. MOSS-VL-Realtime demonstrates strong performance on streaming benchmarks, particularly in proactive behavior, outperforming existing open-source models on metrics like OmniMMI Proactive Alerting. Despite its 11.3B parameters, MOSS-VL achieves a significant time-to-first-token advantage over comparable models like Qwen3 VL 8B, especially as visual context increases. AI
