Qodo-Embed-1: A Family of Efficient, Small Code Embedding Models
2025-03-03
Qodo announced Qodo-Embed-1, a new family of code embedding models achieving state-of-the-art performance with a significantly smaller footprint than existing models. The 1.5B parameter model scored 68.53 on the CoIR benchmark, surpassing larger 7B parameter models. Trained using synthetic data generation to overcome limitations of existing models in accurately retrieving code snippets, Qodo-Embed-1 significantly improves code retrieval accuracy and efficiency. The 1.5B parameter model is open-source, while the 7B parameter model is commercially available.
