| **Binary Quantization** | • **Fastest method and most memory-efficient**<br>• Up to **40x** faster search and **32x** reduced memory footprint | • Use with tested models like OpenAI's `text-embedding-ada-002` and Cohere's `embed-english-v2.0`<br>• When speed and memory efficiency are critical |
| **Scalar Quantization** | • **Minimal loss of accuracy**<br>• Up to **4x** reduced memory footprint | • Safe default choice for most applications.<br>• Offers a good balance between accuracy, speed, and compression. |
| **Product Quantization** | • **Highest compression ratio**<br>• Up to **64x** reduced memory footprint | • When minimizing memory usage is the top priority<br>• Acceptable if some loss of accuracy is tolerable |
