Why the models rank Cohere Embed 4 — on best multimodal embedding api for image search
“The strongest general-purpose multimodal embedding API for production image search — handles interleaved text+image inputs (real mixed documents, not just image-or-caption), Matryoshka dimensions and int8/binary output cut vector-DB cost sharply, 128k context absorbs long PDFs/screenshots, and it's available on Azure/Bedrock/SageMaker for enterprises that can't send data to a startup endpoint; rank assumes the typical practitioner wants text-to-image and doc-screenshot retrieval quality with minimal pipeline work”
