KREA Open Sources Realtime Video Model

KREA AI open-sourced Krea Realtime, a 14-billion parameter autoregressive model that generates long-form video at 11 frames per second on a single NVIDIA B200 GPU—making it 10x larger than any comparable open-source video generation model.

• Model size - At 14B parameters, this is significantly larger than most open-source video models, though the company didn't specify which models they're comparing against

• Performance specs - Generates long-form video at 11 fps on a single B200 GPU, positioning it for real-time or near-real-time generation workflows

• Availability - Model weights and technical report are now publicly available for developers and researchers to download and implement

• Autoregressive approach - Uses an autoregressive architecture for video generation, which predicts each frame based on previous frames rather than generating all frames simultaneously

This release comes as the open-source AI community continues pushing for transparency in model development, though without access to the technical report or comparisons to specific competing models, it's difficult to assess where Realtime actually sits in the landscape. The B200 requirement suggests this isn't aimed at consumer hardware—those GPUs run around $30,000-40,000 each—but could be accessible for studios and research labs already invested in high-end infrastructure.
