voyage-4-nano
Voyage 4 Nano is an Apache-2.0 embedding model. Its model card reports 180 million non-embedding parameters and 160 million embedding parameters.
Model design
The model uses query and document prompts, mean pooling and normalized output. Its card advertises 32,000-token inputs and a shared vector space with Voyage 4. The architecture uses Qwen-based custom code; the card does not identify a precise upstream pretrained checkpoint.voyage-4-nano downloadable model card
Checkpoint and documentation
The downloadable configuration specifies 2,048 output labels and Matryoshka sizes of 256, 512, 1,024 and 2,048. The pooling configuration also specifies 2,048 dimensions. These files support the checkpoint dimensions given here.voyage-4-nano checkpoint configurationvoyage-4-nano pooling configuration

Official GGUF formats
The official repository provides F16 and Q8_0 formats of the same checkpoint. Its instructions require Unicode NFC normalization in llama.cpp. Earlier community conversions could omit bidirectional attention and the final projection, producing incompatible embeddings despite loading without errors. The repository documents minimum runtime versions.Official voyage-4-nano GGUF formats and runtime notes
Practical use
Practical guidance. Local inference gives control over where input text is processed. Preserve the supplied prompts, pooling and normalization when changing runtimes. A model that loads successfully can still produce incompatible vectors if the conversion omits a projection or changes attention.
