## SAVRN's Notes on jina-reranker-v2-base-multilingual

Read the license before the spec sheet on this one. jina-reranker-v2-base-multilingual ships under CC BY-NC 4.0, which allows sharing and adapting with credit for non-commercial purposes only; commercial use needs separate permission from the rights holder. Hardware is the easy part. A 278M parameter cross-encoder on XLMRobertaForSequenceClassification needs 0.7 GB at 16-bit, and the cheapest Index listing that holds it is one MI300X with 192 GB at $1.85 an hour, so co-locate it with the embedding and generation models it sits between.

It takes a query and document pair and returns a relevance score, the step between vector search and answer generation. The pair has to fit in 1,026 tokens, so long passages need trimming. Access is open, the 24 files total 5.3 GB across safetensors, ONNX and PyTorch copies, and the last update was October 21, 2025. For a commercial product, get that permission in writing first.

## Model Card

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…
