This does read very impressive. Any critical perspectives on the presented evaluation? What about noon-English text?

I understand the model is, like for other commercial ones, available exclusively through their API, right?

Yes, voyage models are API only.

There was a part here about multilingualism but that was wrong! Sorry!

FWIW: Voyage also has separate `law`, `code`, and `finance` models. See [1]

Really cool results, anyway.

Glad you liked the results! We do have multilingual models (and rerankers) -- voyage-3, in particular, is multilingual: https://blog.voyageai.com/2024/09/18/voyage-3/

voyage-multimodal-3 is multilingual as well, supporting the same set of languages as voyage-3.

Sorry for spreading false information. I edited the post above.

It is interesting that you’re not as up front about multilingualism compared to cohere. They seem to mention it a lot, which led to my confusion.

No worries at all. That's great feedback and an area of improvement for us when it comes to future posts -- we'll be more explicit about multilingualism in blogs and in our docs.
