Embed v5.0 Fast
Embed v5.0 Fast for multimodal semantic search and document indexing
Embed v5.0 Fast embeds text, images and mixed documents with 128k context. Pro prioritizes quality; Fast prioritizes lower latency. It returns vectors, not chat answers.
descriptionOverview
Overview
Embed v5.0 Fast uses model ID embed-v5.0-fast through the Embed endpoint for text, images and mixed documents such as PDFs. The official catalog lists 128k context and 256, 512, 768, 1024, 1536 or 2048 output dimensions, defaulting to 2048.
Use cases
Evaluate multimodal semantic search, document indexing, classification and RAG. Pro favors quality; Fast favors lower latency. It does not generate chat answers. Validate index compatibility when switching models. Release date and pricing are unconfirmed.
