Prompts go through a single T5-XXL encoder. Licence: Apache 2.0.\n\nWays to run it and their memory:\n- Genmo's repository (github.com/genmoai/models, installed with uv; FFmpeg required, flash attention optional): about 60 GB VRAM on a single GPU, with multi-GPU splitting supported; Genmo recommends at least one H100. demos/gradio_ui.py and demos/cli.py take --model_dir. Its API example (MochiSingleGPUPipeline with cpu_offload and tiled_full decoding) uses 848 x 480, 31 frames, 64 steps, linear_quadratic_schedule(64, 0.025) and CFG 4.5.\n- diffusers MochiPipeline with enable_model_cpu_offload and enable_vae_tiling: about 42 GB for the highest quality; the bf16 variant (variant=\"bf16\", torch_dtype bfloat16) needs about 22 GB with a slight quality drop. The examples generate 84 frames and export at 30 fps.\n- ComfyUI: Genmo says ComfyUI can run Mochi in under 20 GB; ComfyUI-MochiWrapper (kijai) added ComfyUI support, and Genmo took its PyTorch SDPA attention integration from that wrapper. mochi-xdit speeds up parallel inference with xDiT.\n\nWeights: Hugging Face (recommended), a magnet link, or a direct zip from Genmo.\n\nLimits: 480p output in this release, minor warping or distortion with extreme motion, and poor results on animated styles. Genmo notes the model reflects training-data biases and, although NSFW content was limited, asks for extra safety measures before commercial deployment.\n\nBased on the genmo/mochi-1-preview card pinned to revision cd1d0fe89aa8382fcd9ae760bc3d7afe6183579f and observed on 2026-10-27.\nVRAM figures and quality statements are Genmo's; nothing was run here.
