# Announcing Cohere's Embed 5 Models

We're pleased to announce the release of [Embed 5](https://docs.cohere.com/fern/pages/models/embed.mdx), Cohere's most powerful embeddings family yet.

Embed 5 delivers frontier retrieval quality on complex enterprise data, with major gains over Embed 4 on visually rich documents, financial filings, parsed PDFs, code, and multilingual retrieval.

## Key features

- **Two model variants available:**
  - `embed-v5.0-pro`: Optimized for the highest retrieval quality, particularly for offline indexing and quality-critical retrieval
  - `embed-v5.0-fast`: Optimized for low latency and high throughput, particularly for interactive search, agent loops, and high-volume query traffic
- **Shared embedding space**: Pro and Fast share an embedding space, so a corpus indexed with one model can be queried with the other. We recommend indexing with Pro and querying with Fast.
- **Multimodal inputs**: Embed text, images, and mixed text-and-image inputs (e.g. PDF pages) in a single vector
- **Multilingual support**: Supports over 100 languages
- **Extended context length**: 128k token context window
- **Flexible storage**: Matryoshka embeddings in the following dimensions: `[256, 512, 768, 1024, 1536, 2048]`, with `float`, `int8`, and `binary` output types

## Availability

Embed 5 is available through the [Embed API](https://docs.cohere.com/fern/pages/-ARCHIVE-/api-reference/embed.mdx), as well as [Microsoft Foundry](https://ai.azure.com/catalog/models/Cohere-Embed-V5-Pro) and Amazon SageMaker. For single-tenant deployment, Embed 5 is also available in [Model Vault](https://docs.cohere.com/fern/pages/model-vault/overview.mdx).
