Today, we are launching the public beta of Mixedbread Search, a search API that is built from the ground up for the AI era.
Over the last year, we have been hard at work to understand what Search for the AI era would look like. It was clear to us that it should be able to find information, no matter how it's stored.
The world is not powered by clean, well-formatted, neatly arranged text.
Knowledge is found in messy PDFs. It's built upon that one image, stored among 15 million others. Crucial details have been known to live in voice memos. Sometimes, even, the answer you need is to be found in business-critical VB6 scripts which have not been modified in the last decade. And you should be able to find exactly the context you need to reach the right answer, no matter how deep it is buried.
Mixedbread Search encapsulates what search should be: fast, accurate, multilingual, multi-modal. It is designed with both human and AI users in mind, with the goal of removing all barriers between you and the information you need.
It is a fully end-to-end solution, where all you need to bring is your data in the format it currently exists in. Upload it to our platform, and you are ready to begin rediscovering your own documents.
An end-to-end platform
Mixedbread Search is built on one simple idea: you shouldn't have to understand how search works to be able to enjoy good search. It is powered by our state-of-the-art research, distilling the very best methods to provide you with:
- Multi-Modal Search: Text, images, audio and video are all supported.
- Multi-Lingual Search: Because the world is a lot more than just English.
- Multi-Context Search: Our platform has been tested on a variety of contexts: finding code snippets and relevant documentation, retrieving audio samples with specific BPMs, looking up e-commerce products by visual descriptions, among many others...
- Low latency Search: Because you need results now, not in 5700 milliseconds.
- Meaningfully state-of-the-art Search: On realistic DeepResearch benchmarks, LLM assistants are able to reach significantly better response accuracy with Mixedbread Search over existing search systems.
We have developed a simple platform, where every complicated step along the way is handled seamlessly. Your documents are made search-ready thanks to our processing pipeline, which includes state-of-the-art OCR and Document parsing.
Just upload your documents and start searching! Checkout the quickstart to get started. Find out more in the Docs.
State-of-the-art search performance
We offer market-leading search performance thanks to the pipeline based on our in-house research. For example, Mixedbread Search reaches significantly higher accuracy while requiring fewer average requests on the BrowseComp-Plus deep search benchmark using Gemini 2.5 Flash, compared to other widely used semantic search options:
Required LLM calls
Required LLM calls with Mixedbread are 16% fewer than the next lowest model.
Search accuracy
Search accuracy with Mixedbread is 16% higher than the next highest model.

We want to hear from you
Mixedbread Search is entering beta today. This isn't an end, but a beginning: we expect to rapidly iterate on the platform as we gather more real-world feedback.
Please get in touch if you encounter any issues, or if you have any ideas that would make your experience even better. We would love to hear from you, so please feel free to reach out!
