Cohere Embed v4.0

Mistral AI Releases Codestral Embed: First Code-Specialized Embedding Model

Mistral AI has launched Codestral Embed (codestral-embed-2505), its first embedding model specialized for code retrieval and semantic understanding. The model claims to outperform leading competitors including Voyage Code 3, Cohere Embed v4.0, and OpenAI's large embedding model across benchmarks including SWE-Bench, CodeSearchNet, and Text2SQL tasks. It supports variable output dimensions and precisions (including int8), enabling storage/quality trade-offs, and is priced at $0.15 per million tokens via Mistral's API with batch discounts available.
