An attempt to absorb chunking, a RAG preprocessing step, into the embedding model itself

Applies MoE to commercial embeddings and standardizes embedding compatibility across models of different sizes. Comparison figures are the vendor's own measurements

Rerankers change from fixed functions into components steered by instructions. Comparison figures are the vendor's own measurements

Absorbs chunking, a fundamental flaw of RAG, into the model itself

The phase in which competition among commercial embedding APIs explicitly took aim at the OpenAI baseline
