I can't say enough nice things about Cohere's services. I migrated over to their embedding model a few months ago for clip-style embeddings and it's been fantastic.

It has the most crisp, steady P50 of any external service I've used in a long time.

can u comment on overall quality? their models tend to be a bit smaller and less performant overall.

		My baseline was Jina, A Chinese model provider. I had major issues with their reliability. I have no comparison to provide in terms of offline metrics as I had to do an emergency migration because their inference service has extended downtimes. My experience with Cohere and interacting with their sales engineers has been boring, I say that is the most flattering way possible. Embeddings are a core service at this point like VMs and DBs. They just need to work and work well and thats what they're selling.
