Today, we're announcing the launch of the Jamba 1.5 Model Family  — AI21 Labs' new family of open models — in public preview on Vertex AI Model Garden. The model family includes two models designed for scaled enterprise applications:

Jamba 1.5 Mini: AI21's most efficient and lightweight model, engineered for speed and efficiency in tasks including customer support, document summarization, and text generation.

Jamba 1.5 Large: AI21's most advanced and largest model that can handle advanced reasoning tasks — such as financial analysis — with exceptional speed and efficiency. 

Both models in the Jamba 1.5 Model Family offer a 256K context window, Mamba-Transformer architecture for efficient processing, and support advanced developer features like function calling, Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) optimizations, and structured JSON output.

The combination of the 256K context window and efficient architecture allows these models to excel in handling key enterprise use cases such as summarizing and analyzing lengthy documents, powering RAG-based solutions, and a wide range of applications that demand both high-quality output and efficiency:

Customer service: Help improve customer satisfaction and reduce costs through virtual assistants that handle inquiries across sectors like retail, healthcare, and financial services.

Financial analysis: Summarize financial statements, extract key insights from market data, and generate comprehensive financial documents like loan term sheets to support quicker, more informed decisions.

Content creation and summarization: Summarize large documents and generate relevant, high-quality text for content needs like product descriptions and FAQs.

These model additions on Google Cloud continue our commitment to an open and flexible AI ecosystem that helps you build solutions best suited to your needs. Google Cloud's enterprise AI platform, Vertex AI, provides a curated collection of first-party, open source, and third-party models, many of which — including the new Jamba 1.5 Model Family — can be delivered as fully managed Model-as-a-Service (MaaS) offerings. With MaaS, you can choose the foundation model that fits your requirements, access it simply via an API, build with robust development tools, and deploy on our fully managed infrastructure — all with the simplicity of a single bill and hassle-free infrastructure.
