# 🍞 mxbai-rerank-large-v2 This is the large model in our family of powerful reranker models. You can learn more about the models in our [blog post](https://www.mixedbread.ai/blog/mxbai-rerank-v2). We have two models: - [mxbai-rerank-base-v2](https://huggingface.co/mixedbread-ai/mxbai-rerank-base-v2) - [mxbai-rerank-large-v2](https://huggingface.co/mixedbread-ai/mxbai-rerank-large-v2) (🍞) **The technical report is coming soon!** ## 🌟 Features - state-of-the-art performance and strong efficiency - multilingual support (100+ languages, outstanding English and Chinese performance) - code support - long-context support ## ⚙️ Usage 1. Install mxbai-rerank ```bash pip install mxbai-rerank ``` 2.
