Memory is the weights at that precision plus 20% for the runtime and a short context; a long context needs more. Prices are the lowest on-demand hourly rates in the SAVRN Index, read Sep 18, 2026.

Model Card

By Dmitry Tishencko, published under mit, revision 9029bab08103.

This is a sentence-transformers model based on a pre-trained DeepPavlov/rubert-base-cased and finetuned with MS-MARCO Russian passage ranking dataset. The model can be used for Information Retrieval in the Russian language: Given a query, encode the query will all possible passages (e.g. retrieved with ElasticSearch). Then sort the passages in a decreasing order. See SBERT.net Retrieve & Re-rank for more details.

Usage (Sentence-Transformers)

We are excited to introduce the gte-modernbert series of models, which are built upon the latest modernBERT pre-trained encoder-only foundation models. The gte-modernbert series models include both text embedding models and rerank models. The gte-modernbert models demonstrates competitive performance in several text embedding and text retrieval evaluation tasks when compared to similar-scale models from the current open-source community. This includes assessments such as MTEB, LoCO, and COIR evaluation.

This model was trained on the MMARCO dataset. It is a machine translated version of MS MARCO using Google Translate. It was translated to 14 languages. In our experiments, we observed that it performs also well for other languages. As a base model, we used the multilingual MiniLMv2 model. The model can be used for Information Retrieval: Given a query, encode the query will all possible passages (e.g. retrieved with ElasticSearch). Then sort the passages in a decreasing order. See SBERT.net Retrieve & Re-rank for more details. The training code is available here: SBERT.net Training MS Marco The usage becomes easy when you have SentenceTransformers installed.

The Jina Reranker v2 (jina-reranker-v2-base-multilingual) is a transformer-based model that has been fine-tuned for text reranking task, which is a crucial component in many information retrieval systems. It is a cross-encoder model that takes a query and a document pair as input and outputs a score indicating the relevance of the document to the query. The model is trained on a large dataset of query-document pairs and is capable of reranking documents in multiple languages with high accuracy. Compared with the state-of-the-art reranker models, including the previous released jina-reranker-v1-base-en, the Jina Reranker v2 model has demonstrated competitiveness across a series of benchmarks…

This is the smallest model in our family of powerful reranker models. You can learn more about the models in our blog post. Currently, the best way to use our models is with the most recent version of sentence-transformers. pip install -U sentence-transformers Let's say you have a query, and you want to rerank a set of documents. You can do that with only one line of code: Install transformers.js npm i @xenova/transformers Let's say you have a query, and you want to rerank a set of documents. In JavaScript, you need to add a function: You can use the large model via our API as follows: The API comes with additional features, such as a continous trained reranker!
