We’re expanding the Gemini API File Search tool 🔍 with 3 new updates that enable developers to more easily build multimodal RAG systems with enhanced precision:

+ Multimodal Support: By leveraging our Gemini Embedding 2 model, File Search can now reason across image and text simultaneously.

+ Custom Metadata Filtering: Bring structure to unstructured data by tagging files with custom key-value labels. This pre-filters your data and boosts search speed.

+ Exact citations: File Search can now capture and return the exact source (down to the page number) for every piece of information indexed.

See multimodal File Search in action with our example app in @GoogleAIStudio. Chat with your entire image and doc library, ask questions, and trace answers back to the source: goo.gle/4tKSz1k
