Cohere Embed v3

About Cohere Embed v3

Cohere Embed v3, developed by Cohere, is an embedding model with a 512-token input limit designed for semantic search, retrieval-augmented generation, and clustering applications. The model generates dense vector representations of text that capture semantic meaning, enabling similarity-based search across document collections. Embed v3 supports 100+ languages and produces compact embeddings optimized for vector database storage and retrieval. It outperforms previous generations on the MTEB benchmark across multiple retrieval and classification tasks. Priced at $0.10 per million tokens, it offers cost-effective embedding generation for production search pipelines. The model serves as the foundation for enterprise search systems, recommendation engines, and RAG architectures. Embed v3 remains widely deployed despite the release of v4, due to its mature ecosystem of integrations and proven production reliability.
