## Introducing Marengo 2.7 and API v1.3

TwelveLabs is proud to introduce the following new features and improvements:

* **Marengo 2.7**: This new version of the Marengo video understanding engine improves accuracy and performance in the following areas:
  * Multimodal processing that combines visual, audio, and text elements.
  * Fine-grained image-to-video search: detect brand logos, text, and small objects (as small as 10% of the video frame).
  * Improvement in motion search capability.
  * Counting capabilities.
  * More nuanced audio comprehension: music, lyrics, sound, and silence.
    For more details on the new features and improvements in this version, refer to this blog post: [Introducing Marengo 2.7: Pioneering Multi-Vector Embeddings for Advanced Video Understanding](https://www.twelvelabs.io/blog/introducing-marengo-2-7).
* Simplified modalities:
  * `visual`:  includes objects, actions, text OCR, logos.
  * `audio`: includes speech, music, and ambient sounds.
  * `conversation` has been deprecated.
  * `text_in_video` and `logo` are now part of `visual`.
* Streamlined endpoint structure: Several endpoints and parameters have been deprecated, removed, or renamed.

> **Notes**
>
> * The 1.3 version of the API version only supports Marengo 2.7.
> * Marengo 2.7 generates embeddings that are not backward compatible. You must reindex all your videos and regenerate all your embeddings with Marengo 2.7.
> * The audio search feature in Marengo 2.7 works best with full-sentence queries. Short queries may yield suboptimal results. This limitation is temporary and will be addressed in a future release.
