Automatically converts documents into dense vector embeddings using configurable embedding models (OpenAI, Anthropic, or local alternatives) and persists them in Convex's serverless database with metadata indexing. The system handles chunking strategies, batch processing, and incremental updates without requiring external vector databases like Pinecone or Weaviate.
Unique: Integrates embedding generation and vector storage directly into Convex's serverless database layer, eliminating the need for external vector DBs and enabling co-location of documents, embeddings, and application state in a single ACID-compliant database
vs alternatives: Simpler than Pinecone/Weaviate for Convex users (no separate infrastructure), but slower than specialized vector DBs for large-scale similarity search due to lack of ANN indexing
Executes vector similarity queries against stored embeddings using cosine distance, dot product, or Euclidean distance metrics. Queries are performed via Convex functions that compute similarity scores between a query embedding and all stored document embeddings, returning ranked results with configurable result limits and filtering predicates applied before or after similarity computation.
Unique: Performs similarity search within Convex's transactional database context, allowing atomic combination of vector search with document updates, metadata filtering, and application logic in a single function call without network round-trips to external services
vs alternatives: More integrated with application state than Pinecone (no sync delays), but significantly slower than specialized vector DBs with HNSW/IVF indexing for large-scale searches
Automatically splits long documents into semantically coherent chunks using configurable strategies (character-based, token-based, or recursive with overlap). The framework handles chunk size limits, overlap windows to preserve context, and metadata propagation so each chunk retains references to the original document and its position, enabling retrieval of full context during RAG synthesis.
Unique: Integrates chunking directly into the Convex RAG pipeline with automatic metadata propagation, so chunks are stored with full lineage information enabling direct retrieval of source documents without separate lookup queries
vs alternatives: Simpler than LangChain's text splitters (no external dependencies), but less sophisticated than semantic chunking approaches that use embeddings to identify natural boundaries
Provides a pluggable interface for embedding generation supporting OpenAI, Anthropic, and local/self-hosted models through a unified API. The framework abstracts provider-specific details (API endpoints, authentication, request/response formats) so developers can switch embedding models without changing application code, and handles retries, rate limiting, and error recovery transparently.
Unique: Abstracts embedding provider selection at the Convex function level, allowing different documents or batches to use different embedding models within the same application without architectural changes, and storing provider metadata with embeddings for future re-embedding decisions
vs alternatives: More flexible than LangChain's embedding wrappers (supports Convex-native batching), but requires manual re-embedding when switching models unlike some managed RAG platforms that handle this automatically
Provides utilities to retrieve relevant documents from semantic search results and format them as context for LLM prompts, handling token budgeting, context window management, and integration with LLM APIs (OpenAI, Anthropic, etc.). The framework manages the retrieval-augmented generation loop: query → embed → search → retrieve → format context → call LLM → return answer.
Unique: Orchestrates the complete RAG loop within Convex functions, maintaining document/embedding/LLM state in a single transactional context and enabling atomic updates to conversation history and retrieved context without external workflow engines
vs alternatives: More integrated than LangChain's RAG chains (no separate orchestration layer), but less flexible than frameworks like LlamaIndex for complex retrieval strategies or multi-stage reasoning
Automatically detects document changes and re-embeds only modified documents rather than rebuilding the entire index. The system tracks document versions, timestamps, and change hashes to identify which documents need re-embedding, and handles concurrent updates safely within Convex's transactional guarantees without requiring manual index invalidation or rebuild triggers.
Unique: Leverages Convex's transactional database to track document versions and automatically trigger re-embedding on updates, eliminating the need for external change data capture (CDC) systems or manual index invalidation
vs alternatives: More seamless than Pinecone's upsert operations (automatic change detection), but less sophisticated than specialized search engines with incremental indexing strategies optimized for massive document collections
Processes multiple documents in batches through the embedding API, handling rate limiting, transient failures, and partial failures gracefully. The framework groups documents into optimal batch sizes for the embedding provider, implements exponential backoff retry logic, and tracks which documents succeeded/failed so applications can retry failed embeddings without re-processing successful ones.
Unique: Integrates batch processing directly into Convex functions with automatic retry and error tracking, allowing failed embeddings to be persisted and retried without re-processing the entire batch or losing application state
vs alternatives: Simpler than managing batch jobs with external task queues (no separate infrastructure), but less sophisticated than specialized ETL tools with checkpoint/resume capabilities for massive-scale embedding operations
Combines semantic similarity search with metadata-based filtering and optional keyword matching to refine results. The framework applies metadata predicates (e.g., 'category=finance AND date>2024') before or after similarity computation, and can optionally incorporate keyword/BM25 scoring alongside vector similarity for hybrid ranking that balances semantic relevance with exact term matches.
Unique: Performs metadata filtering within Convex's query engine before similarity computation, reducing the number of documents to score and enabling efficient combination of structured filtering with semantic ranking in a single database query
vs alternatives: More integrated than Elasticsearch hybrid search (no separate index), but less flexible than Pinecone's metadata filtering for complex boolean queries on high-cardinality fields
Converts variable-length text sequences into fixed-dimensional dense vector representations (768-dim) using a transformer-based architecture (MPNet) trained on 215M+ sentence pairs. The model uses mean pooling over token embeddings to produce sentence-level vectors that capture semantic meaning, enabling downstream similarity and retrieval tasks without task-specific fine-tuning.
Unique: Uses MPNet (Masked and Permuted Language Modeling) architecture with mean pooling trained on 215M+ diverse sentence pairs (S2ORC, MS MARCO, StackExchange, Yahoo Answers, CodeSearchNet) rather than single-task fine-tuning, achieving state-of-the-art performance on 14+ downstream tasks without task-specific adaptation
vs alternatives: Outperforms OpenAI's text-embedding-3-small on semantic similarity benchmarks (MTEB score 63.3 vs 62.3) while being fully open-source, locally deployable, and requiring no API calls or authentication
Enables semantic similarity computation between text pairs by projecting both inputs into a shared 768-dimensional vector space where cosine distance correlates with semantic relatedness. The model was trained with contrastive learning objectives on parallel and similar-meaning sentence pairs, allowing it to match semantically equivalent texts across different phrasings and domains.
Unique: Trained with in-batch negatives and hard negative mining on 215M+ pairs including adversarial examples (MS MARCO hard negatives, StackExchange duplicate detection), producing embeddings optimized for ranking-aware similarity rather than generic semantic distance
vs alternatives: Achieves higher ranking accuracy than Sentence-BERT-base (NDCG@10: 0.68 vs 0.61) on MS MARCO while maintaining 2.5x faster inference than cross-encoder rerankers due to symmetric embedding computation
all-mpnet-base-v2 scores higher at 58/100 vs @convex-dev/rag at 35/100. @convex-dev/rag leads on ecosystem, while all-mpnet-base-v2 is stronger on adoption and quality.
