Text Embedding Models

text-embedding-3-small is OpenAI's improved, more performant version of the ada embedding model. Embeddings are a numerical representation of text that can be used to measure the relatedness between two pieces of text. Embeddings are useful for search, clustering, recommendations, anomaly detection, and classification tasks.

The Qwen3 Embedding model series is the latest proprietary model of the Qwen family, specifically designed for text embedding and ranking tasks. This series inherits the exceptional multilingual capabilities, long-text understanding, and reasoning skills of its foundational model. The Qwen3 Embedding series represents significant advancements in multiple text embedding and ranking tasks, including text retrieval, code retrieval, text classification, text clustering, and bitext mining.

pplx-embed-v1-0.6B is one of Perplexity's state-of-the-art text embedding models built for real-world, web-scale retrieval. pplx-embed-v1 is optimized for standard dense text retrieval with the 0.6B parameter model targeting lightweight, low-latency embedding generation.

The bge-m3 embedding model encodes sentences, paragraphs, and long documents into a 1024-dimensional dense vector space, delivering high-quality semantic embeddings optimized for multilingual retrieval, semantic search, and large-context applications.

gemini-embedding-001 provides a unified cutting edge experience across domains, including science, legal, finance, and coding. This embedding model has consistently held a top spot on the Massive Text Embedding Benchmark (MTEB) Multilingual leaderboard since the experimental launch in March.

Gemini Embedding 2 is Google's first multimodal embedding model. We currently support mapping text and images into a unified vector space for semantic search and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG). It supports input context up to 8,192 tokens and flexible output dimensions from 128 to 3,072 (recommended: 768, 1536, or 3,072). Designed for cross-modal similarity — you can embed a text query and retrieve the most relevant images, or vice versa — making it well-suited for multimodal search, recommendation, and document understanding pipelines.

text-embedding-3-large is OpenAI's most capable embedding model for both english and non-english tasks. Embeddings are a numerical representation of text that can be used to measure the relatedness between two pieces of text. Embeddings are useful for search, clustering, recommendations, anomaly detection, and classification tasks.

NVIDIA Nemotron 3 Embed 1B is an open text embedding model from NVIDIA, optimized for high-throughput, low-latency retrieval. It is suited for enterprise search, RAG, code retrieval, and agentic retrieval workflows, retaining more than 95% of the 8B model’s accuracy in a smaller deployment footprint.

Mistral Embed is a specialized embedding model for text data, optimized for semantic search and RAG applications. Developed by Mistral AI in late 2023, it produces 1024-dimensional vectors that effectively capture semantic relationships in text.
