samvit_base_patch16.s is an open-weight embedding model from timm. AxForge deploys and operates it for you on dedicated EU-owned hardware — with the licence handled where one is required.
Available as managed deployment — configured and operated for you on dedicated EU hardware, quoted per deployment.

About
A Segment-Anything Vision Transformer (SAM ViT) image feature model (NOTE: for features and fine-tune, segmentation head not included). Pretrained on SA-1B for segementation by paper authors w/ initialization from MAE weights.

transforms = timm.data.create_transform(**data_config, is_training=False)
output = model(transforms(img).unsqueeze(0)) # output is (batch_size, num_features) shaped tensor
# or equivalently (without needing to set num_classes=0)
output = model.forward_features(transforms(img).unsqueeze(0))
# output is unpooled, a (1, 256, 64, 64) shaped tensor
output = model.forward_head(output, pre_logits=True)
# output is a (1, num_features) shaped tensor

How it works
Using it via the API
Once AxForge deploys samvit-base-patch16-s for you, it answers on the OpenAI-compatible API — the same base URL and keys as every other model. (samvit-base-patch16-s below is illustrative; you get the exact model name on deployment.)
$ curl -sS https://api.axforge.ai/v1/embeddings \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $AXFORGE_API_KEY" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"model":"samvit-base-patch16-s","input":"text to embed"}'
