    I’m partial to jina.ai — they have open models for code and prose, all easily runnable locally.

    I've liked qwen and embeddinggemma for local search. Qwen because 32K is enough to basically fit a whole page into the context window and embeddiggemma because it's crazy efficient.

    Benchmarks only paint part of the picture, but it's still a decent place to start looking into recent models:

    embeddings are easy to fine tune. Try modern bert.
