What the current evidence supports

Agent-assisted assessment · independently reviewed · 2026-10-05

Use for a measured pilot on visually rich documents; expand when local quality, latency and cost targets are met.

Why
The exact 4B model has reported enterprise use and independent retrieval results, but Korean performance and limited production transparency constrain generalization.
Next
Pin the checkpoint and libraries, compare against text/OCR retrieval, and measure recall, refresh lag, throughput and storage on representative documents.

Constraints

Blockers

  • Multi-vector storage and scoring add compute and indexing overhead.
  • Korean and complex multi-page queries can produce weak retrieval.
  • Production quality results cover one private corpus and one baseline.
  • Library compatibility has required repairs; upgrades need testing.
  • Short-video retrieval remains supported principally by preliminary maker evaluation.
