Writer's latest models can generate text from images including charts and graphs

San Francisco-based startup, Writer, has introduced a new capability for its Palmyra model called Palmyra-Vision, which generates text from images. The company focuses on multimodal content and generates text insights from images, such as graphs and charts, rather than creating visuals themselves. Use cases include generating text for e-commerce websites with changing images, interpreting data from charts and graphs, compliance checking, and summarizing handwritten notes. Writer advises using human review alongside their AI tools to ensure accuracy. The company has raised $126 million and is looking to partner with cloud infrastructure platforms for scaling.
