Top News

Clef-omni makes decisions from text, images, audio, and video in one call. Cloudflare’s new model costs $0.15 per million input tokens and joins Clef and Clef-flash rather than replacing them.

Here's what you can build with it:

  • Candidate values are scored directly from internal embeddings, without generating output tokens.
  • Median latency is about 130 ms for text, 150 ms for images, and 1.5 seconds for a 21-second video with sound.
  • Cloudflare reports a BFCL case-exact score of 98.2 for Clef-omni, versus 95.75 for Jev.
  • Clef-flash’s hosted input price fell from $0.09 to $0.038 per million tokens, while its hosted context shrank from 64k to 24k.

One catch: Cloudflare reports Clef-omni scores 63.3 on When2Call accuracy, below Jev’s 80.97.
