Does Qwen 3.5 support multimodal embedding?

Yes, Qwen3-VL-Embedding enables multimodal vector embeddings by handling text, images, screenshots, and videos in a single unified model.

Qwen3-VL-Embedding bridges text and visual content in your RAG systems. You can embed product images alongside descriptions, search across mixed-media documents, and build cross-modal retrieval pipelines. The model shares the same high-performance backbone as text-only Qwen3 embeddings, maintaining the multilingual support and MTEB leaderboard ranking.

With Milvus, Qwen3-VL-Embedding enables multimodal search: store image and text embeddings in the same Milvus index using uniform 32K context windows, then query using either modality. Milvus tutorials demonstrate building multimodal RAG pipelines with Qwen3-VL-Embedding for e-commerce and content discovery applications. The self-hosted architecture means full control over visual data privacy—critical for enterprises processing proprietary images.
