Definition
Voyage AI Embeddings are state-of-the-art vector models optimized for retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) that prioritize semantic search accuracy over general-purpose language modeling. They utilize domain-specific fine-tuning (e.g., for code, legal, or financial data) to improve context retrieval performance while managing the trade-off between higher API costs and superior document ranking.
These are specialized vector-generation models used for search, not text-generation models like GPT-4 or Claude.
"A high-resolution topographical map that ensures the 'retrieval drone' identifies the exact conceptual peak rather than landing in a general area of keyword similarity."
