## [NVIDIA: Llama Nemotron Rerank VL 1B V2 (free)](https://ailoot.ai/models/en/nvidia-llama-nemotron-rerank-vl-1b-v2-u003a-free/)

Llama Nemotron Rerank VL 1B V2 is NVIDIA’s cross-encoder reranker for ordering retrieved material by its relevance to a query. Send a query and candidate text, image or combined documents, then use the returned scores and original indices to choose the passages for search results or a retrieval-augmented answer.

About the model

This description covers the model’s capabilities. Available in Ailoot inputs, outputs and options are listed for the selected method below.

Llama Nemotron Rerank VL 1B V2 evaluates the relevance of candidate text and document images to a text query, including charts, tables and mixed-media pages. NVIDIA describes it as a 1.7B-parameter cross-encoder model. In a retrieval workflow, run the initial search first, then send the selected candidates to the reranker. The useful result is a reordered set of those candidates with relevance scores, which an application can use to choose context for an answer or arrange a search-results page.

Use POST /v1/rerank with an application/json body. Set model to "nvidia/llama-nemotron-rerank-vl-1b-v2:free", query to the actual search question, and documents to a nonempty array. Each candidate may be a text string or an object with text and/or image; a structured object must supply at least one of those fields. text is a string. image is a remote HTTP/HTTPS URL or a base64 data URI beginning data:image/. A combined candidate supplies both fields. Preserve the order of that input array so returned indices can be matched to your stored document IDs. top\_n is an optional integer of at least 1 that requests the number of highest-ranked documents to return.

For example, a help-centre application can retrieve passages about delivery, returns and account access, then rerank those passages against the customer’s delivery question. Pass the actual passage text rather than filenames or search-engine snippets unrelated to the stored source. Keep each passage connected to its own source identifier in the application, so the selected evidence can later be cited or opened. For a scanned document, chart, table or infographic, provide its actual image in a document object and add text when it helps identify the content.

The model page documents a limit of 10,240 tokens per query and document. Split longer source material into bounded passages before preparing the candidate list. Keep useful surrounding context with each passage, including the heading or product name when it changes the meaning. The documented request starts with the candidates you provide; it does not search a document collection on your behalf.

Reranking returns a synchronous JSON result. Read every results item, including its original index, relevance\_score and returned document object, which can carry text and/or image, and preserve any returned usage and response identifiers. Use the index to map the ranked result back to its input candidate. Treat a relevance score as a ranking signal for this query rather than an independently verified factual answer. Retain the complete result when several passages are selected for the next step.

Prepare public or synthetic candidate material for this free edition; its documented usage terms exclude confidential information and personal data. If a request ends without a complete result, keep the original response and request identifier while checking that attempt. The documented rerank flow returns its result directly and supplies no separate job-polling or cancellation workflow.
