jina-embeddings-v2-base-en

Use the jina-embeddings-v2-base-en embedding or reranking model with Pinecone: specs and index setup. Ideal for text embeddings where short queries are.

Back to all models

Ideal for text embeddings where short queries are expected to return large passages of text. Works well with messy data. Can be used via Jina Embeddings API - users can get an API key here https://jina.ai/embeddings/.

Python
!pip install pinecone
Python
from pinecone import Pinecone, ServerlessSpec

pc = Pinecone(api_key="API_KEY")

# Create Index
index_name = "jina-embeddings-v2-base-en"

if not pc.has_index(index_name):
    pc.create_index(
        name=index_name,
        dimension=768,
        metric="cosine",
        spec=ServerlessSpec(
            cloud='aws',
            region='us-east-1'
        )
    )
