Ternlight: A 7 MB Embedding Model Running Entirely in Your Browser

Ternlight – 7 MB embedding model that runs in browser (WASM)

I built Ternlight, a tiny embedding model that fits in just 7 MB and runs directly on your CPU without needing any API calls. You can drop it into your project as a single npm package to perform semantic search in milliseconds. Whether you are using the full version or the 5 MB mini variant, you get fast, local embeddings with zero network latency, making it perfect for tasks like searching React docs right in the browser.

"Drop it in, embed text in milliseconds, and never call a server."
