Thanks Google, Embedding Gemma 2 is a big deal 🫶
Multimodal embeddings (text, images, video, audio) can run on-device in the browser. No server, no API key, ~20–70 ms per query on WebGPU. Everything stays on your machine (ofc).
Now go build (new) things with it 🚀
Introducing EmbeddingGemma 2, a new open multimodal model that sets the standard for on-device efficiency.
- our first open, natively multimodal embedding model
- handles text, code, image, video, and audio tasks within a lightweight, modular 740M parameter form factor
- ideal for offline, privacy-first RAG when paired with Gemma 4
- outperforms some specialist models more than twice its size
Weights available now on Hugging Face.
