Reka

Reka is a multimodal AI platform from Reka AI that natively understands video, audio, images, and text. It processes real-world media as first-class inputs rather than bolting vision onto a text model. Enterprise teams can deploy it in cloud, on-premise, VPC, or fully air-gapped environments.

What Reka does

• •Native video understanding Reka processes video with both audio and visual context together. Search long recordings, detect scenes, and generate captions without separate transcription or frame extraction steps.
• •Audio intelligence Transcribe audio, identify speakers, and extract key insights from meetings, podcasts, and call recordings. The audio pipeline runs natively alongside the video and image models.
• •Image analysis Describe images in detail, answer visual questions, and generate multimodal embeddings for search and classification tasks.
• •Unified text capabilities Reka handles standard text tasks like summarization, Q&A, and reasoning. Text processing shares the same foundation as the multimodal models.
• •Free Playground Test Reka's models directly in your browser at no cost. The Playground lets you upload video, audio, and image files to see results before committing to a paid plan.
• •Enterprise deployment flexibility Run Reka in your own cloud, on-premise servers, VPC, or fully air-gapped data centers. This covers regulated industries like defense, healthcare, and finance that cannot send data to external APIs.
• •Multimodal embeddings Generate embeddings from video, audio, image, or text inputs. Use them for semantic search, clustering, or recommendation systems across mixed media types.

Pricing

• •Free Playground $0 per month, test all core models in the browser with sample or uploaded files.
• •API access Pay-per-use pricing based on tokens processed. Contact Reka AI for current per-token rates and volume discounts.

Limitations

• •Opaque API pricing Reka does not publish per-token rates on its public pricing page. You must contact the sales team to get a quote, which makes cost comparison with Gemini or GPT-4o difficult before committing.
• •No mobile application Reka runs as a web platform only. There is no iOS or Android app, so on-the-go media processing requires a mobile browser.
• •Limited third-party integrations Unlike ChatGPT with its plugin ecosystem or Gemini with Google Workspace, Reka does not offer a broad marketplace of pre-built connectors or extensions.
• •Playground feature limits The free Playground is designed for evaluation, not production workloads. File size limits and request quotas may constrain heavy testing sessions.
