a good system (like openevidence) indexes every paper released and semantic search can incredible helpful since the the search api of all those providers are extremely limited in terms of quality.

now you get why those system are not cheap. keeping indexes fresh, maintaining high quality at large scale and being extremely precise is challenging. by having distributed indexes you are at the mercy of the api providers and i can tell you from previous experience that it won't be 'currently accurate'.

for transparency: i am building a search api, so i am biased. but i also build medical retrieval systems for some time.

The whole point of OpenAI's Responses API is to help them hide reasoning traces

you should check mixedbread out. we support indexing multimodal data and making data ready for ai. we are adding video and audio support by the end of the year. might be interesting for the OP as well.

we have couple investigative journalists and lawyers using us for a similar usecase.

breadislove — Mon, 20 Oct 2025 12:13:29 +0000

For everyone wondering how good this and other benchmarks are:

- the OmniAI benchmark is bad

- Instead check OmniDocBench[1] out

- Mistral OCR is far far behind most Open Source OCR models and even further behind then Gemini

- End to End OCR is still extremely tricky

- composed pipelines work better (layout detection -> reading order -> OCR every element)

- complex table parsing is still extremely difficult

we have extremely processing heavy jobs where user upload large collection of files (audios, pdfs, videos etc.) and expect to get fast processing. its just that we need to fan out sometimes, since a lot of our users a sensitive to processing times.

Hetzner is really great until you try to scale with them. We started building our service on top of Hetzner and had couple 100s of VMs running and during peak time we had to scale them to over 1000 VMs. And here couple of problems started, you get pretty often IPs which are black listed, so if you try to connect to services hosted by Google, AWS like S3 etc. you can't reach them. Also at one point there were no VMs available anymore in our region, which caused a lot of issues.

But in general if you don't need to scale crazy Hetzner is amazing, we still have a lot of stuff running on Hetzner but fan out to other services when we need to scale.

yeah but if people would like to double check the results it would be nice to have the actual benchmark. especially given that your playground is broken...

I think we are going through the langchain era for agents. the world will look really different in couple month and the stack will be wildly different and more unified.

Thats actually not correct. Embeddings can handle relationships like “without” or “not.” when trained for it. You need to scale up the training massively to make it generalize it well. The current version of Mixedbread Search supports negatives like "tshirt without stripes". You can check it out on our launch video [1]. We are working on a way more generalized model, which should be able to capture relationships, emotions and much more. The current models are just limited.
