CurrentReleased Jun 18, 2026Open WeightNon-Reasoning32K context
LFM2.5-Embedding-350M is tracked, but not publicly ranked yet. The profile exposes 2 sourced benchmark rows and leaves unsupported fields blank until a published record exists.

Data as of August 2, 2026 · How the score is built

Strongest published evidence

Published rows are visible, but no category has enough eligible evidence for a comparative rank.

Validate before choosing

2 published rows leave some tracked benchmark slots empty. No comparable first-party API token rate is published.

Decision snapshot

Each value carries a field reference instead of floating alone. Markers compare this model with the current ranked and priced catalog; they are not absolute quality thresholds.

How much of this is verified

Coverage is split by category so a strong number never hides a thin evidence base. Verified means the row is tied to a published source; provisional rows remain visible but separate.

Deployment options

Self-host and provider-specific paths stay separate from benchmark evidence so operating constraints are visible before a score becomes the whole decision.

Published weights are available, but BenchLM does not yet have a sourced parameter and VRAM profile for this exact model. Hardware cost estimates stay unavailable until that sizing record is complete.

Benchmark ledger

Multilingual opens by default. The marker compares each value with the best source-verified result in the catalog; provisional leaders do not set the reference. Expand the remaining categories for every published row.

How to read this profile

The visual layer above carries the decisions. These notes preserve the model, ranking, coverage, and family context behind the numbers.

We track LFM2.5-Embedding-350M, but the public leaderboard excludes this profile until enough non-generated benchmark coverage is available. Only published rows appear above.

LFM2.5-Embedding-350M is a open weight model with a 32K context window. No explicit reasoning mode is documented in this profile.

Official exact-value snapshot from Liquid AI's June 18, 2026 LFM2.5 Retrievers launch post and matching Hugging Face model cards. BenchLM stores the NanoBEIR Multilingual Extended NDCG@10 and MKQA-11 Recall@20 averages as display-only multilingual retrieval rows because these models are retrievers/embedding models, not general chat LLMs.

LFM2.5-Embedding-350M sits in the LFM2.5 Retrievers family with LFM2.5-ColBERT-350M. 2 of 376 tracked benchmark slots currently have displayable evidence. Missing categories stay blank.

Frequently asked questions

How does LFM2.5-Embedding-350M perform overall in AI benchmarks?

LFM2.5-Embedding-350M has 2 source-displayable benchmark rows, but it does not qualify for a public overall rank. The available rows remain visible by category without being converted into a site-wide score. Missing evidence stays blank instead of being estimated from an earlier model.

Is LFM2.5-Embedding-350M good for multilingual tasks?

LFM2.5-Embedding-350M has source-displayable benchmark coverage for multilingual tasks, but the public category table does not assign it a rank there. The individual rows remain available for inspection. A missing category position means the evidence threshold was not met; it does not convert the model's unmeasured work into a zero.

Is LFM2.5-Embedding-350M open source?

LFM2.5-Embedding-350M is an open-weight model from LiquidAI. Its weights can be downloaded for local or hosted deployment, subject to the published license. Open weight does not automatically mean open source: training data and training code may remain private, and commercial restrictions can still apply.

Which sibling models are related to LFM2.5-Embedding-350M?

LFM2.5-Embedding-350M belongs to the LFM2.5 Retrievers family. Related tracked variants include LFM2.5-ColBERT-350M. A sibling link indicates shared lineage or a documented configuration relationship; it does not mean the variants have identical pricing, context limits, benchmark evidence, or deployment behavior. Compare before switching.

Does LFM2.5-Embedding-350M have full benchmark coverage on BenchLM?

No. LFM2.5-Embedding-350M currently has 2 source-displayable rows across 376 tracked benchmark slots. The profile exposes published, non-generated evidence and leaves missing categories blank until an exact evaluation is available. Coverage describes how much was measured; it is not a penalty added to an individual benchmark result.

What is the context window size of LFM2.5-Embedding-350M?

LFM2.5-Embedding-350M has a reported context window of 32K in the exact-model catalog record. The value stays visible, but the profile marks its source link as unavailable instead of presenting it as directly documented. Maximum output length remains separate because providers often publish a different limit.

Last updated August 2, 2026. Runtime fields remain blank until a sourced snapshot exists.
