Released January 2026262K context≈ 196,608 words4b params

A compact visual-language embedding specialist that punches above its weight for a 4B-parameter model. It focuses narrowly on producing dense vector representations rather than generating text, making it reliable for retrieval and similarity tasks. Its non-commercial license keeps it out of production pipelines but suits research and prototyping well.

Glossary

Dense VectorA compact numerical representation where most values are non-zero, used to efficiently store and compare the meaning of text.EmbeddingA dense numerical vector that represents a word, sentence, or concept in a high-dimensional space.Non-Commercial LicenseA legal restriction that permits using the model for learning and research but prohibits using it in production systems or for commercial purposes.Parameter ModelA neural network described by the number of learnable weights it contains; more parameters generally mean greater capacity to learn complex patterns, but also require more computational resources.RetrievalThe process of finding and returning relevant documents or information from a database based on a query.
