Ettin Reranker 68M is the mid-size model in the Ettin family, built on the ModernBERT encoder architecture and distilled from mxbai-rerank-large-v2. It provides a balance between the tiny 17M/32M variants and the larger 150M/400M/1B models, making it suitable for latency-sensitive production workloads that still need strong reranking quality.
Architecture
Cross-encoder architecture using ModernBERT as the backbone. Concatenates query and document into a single input sequence, processes through bidirectional attention layers, and outputs a single relevance score. Trained via knowledge distillation from larger reranking models with margin-MSE loss.
Mixpeek SDK Integration
import { Mixpeek } from "mixpeek";
const mx = new Mixpeek({ apiKey: "API_KEY" });
// Managed: create a collection over a bucket; Mixpeek runs this model's extractor
const collection = await mx.collections.create({
namespace_id: "my-namespace",
collection_name: "my-collection",
source: { type: "bucket", bucket_ids: ["bkt_your_bucket"] },
feature_extractor: {
feature_extractor_name: "s3",
version: "v1",
parameters: { model_id: "mixpeek://text_extractor@v1/baai_bge_large_v1" },
},
});Capabilities
