Smallest high-quality multilingual text embedding at 239M parameters
jinaai/jina-embeddings-v5-text-nanomixpeek://text_extractor@v1/jina_embeddings_v5_nano_v1Overview
Jina Embeddings v5 Text Nano is a 239M-parameter multilingual text embedding model built on the EuroBERT-210M backbone. It achieves 71.0 on MTEB English v2: remarkably close to the 677M v5-text-small (71.7) at one-third the size. Trained via embedding distillation from Qwen3-Embedding-4B with task-specific contrastive losses, it retains quality under aggressive dimension truncation and binary quantization.
On Mixpeek, jina-embeddings-v5-text-nano is the optimal choice for latency-critical and edge deployments where every millisecond counts. Its Matryoshka support (768 down to 32 dimensions) and robust quantization make it ideal for high-throughput text search at minimal compute cost.
Architecture
EuroBERT-210M backbone with last-token pooling. 239M parameters. Four task-specific LoRA adapters (retrieval, text-matching, clustering, classification). 8192-token context length. Matryoshka truncation from 768 to 32 dimensions.
Mixpeek SDK Integration
// No extractor parameter takes a Hugging Face model id (checked against
// GET /v1/discovery/extractors, which returns 13), so jina-embeddings-v5-text-nano runs
// on your side and the output is upserted through POST
// /v1/namespaces/{namespace_id}/documents/upsert. On Enterprise the other
// path is to upload the weights instead: POST /v1/namespaces/{id}/models
// accepts the huggingface format and a custom plugin loads them.
