Embed 5 Pro embeddings

Embed 5 Pro is a current embedding model from Cohere, called by API as embed-v5.0-pro. It returns 2,048-dimension vectors by default and accepts up to 128,000 input tokens, for text, image and PDF input. The first-party list price is $0.12 per 1M input tokens.

Default output: 2,048 dimensions.

Listed sizes: 2,048, 1,536, 1,024, 768, 512 and 256.

Cohere documents shorter output vectors for this model (Matryoshka-style), so you can store smaller embeddings by asking for fewer dimensions instead of re-embedding with another model.

Usage

Copied verbatim from the page linked below. Placeholders such as project ids and API keys are the source's own.

Code
texts = ["hello"]

response = co.embed(
    model="embed-v5.0-pro",
    texts=texts,
    output_dimension=1024,
    input_type="classification",
    embedding_types=["float"],
).embeddings

# print out the embeddings
response.float  # returns a vector that is 1024 dimensions

Worth knowing

Requires input_type (search_query or search_document for retrieval, classification or clustering) and shares an embedding space with Embed 5 Fast, so Cohere recommends indexing with Pro and querying with Fast.

Release date not stated in the sources. Multilingual: yes.

FAQ

How many dimensions does Embed 5 Pro output?

Default output: 2,048 dimensions. Listed sizes: 2,048, 1,536, 1,024, 768, 512 and 256. Cohere documents shorter output vectors for this model (Matryoshka-style), so you can store smaller embeddings by asking for fewer dimensions instead of re-embedding with another model.

What is the max input length of Embed 5 Pro?

128,000 tokens per input, per Cohere's documentation. Longer text has to be chunked before you embed it.
