Automatically generates vector embeddings for Strapi content entries using configurable AI providers (OpenAI, Anthropic, or local models). Hooks into Strapi's lifecycle events to trigger embedding generation on content creation/update, storing dense vectors in PostgreSQL via pgvector extension. Supports batch processing and selective field embedding based on content type configuration.
Unique: Strapi-native plugin that integrates embeddings directly into content lifecycle hooks rather than requiring external ETL pipelines; supports multiple embedding providers (OpenAI, Anthropic, local) with unified configuration interface and pgvector as first-class storage backend
vs alternatives: Tighter Strapi integration than generic embedding services, eliminating the need for separate indexing pipelines while maintaining provider flexibility
Executes semantic similarity search against embedded content using vector distance calculations (cosine, L2) in PostgreSQL pgvector. Accepts natural language queries, converts them to embeddings via the same provider used for content, and returns ranked results based on vector similarity. Supports filtering by content type, status, and custom metadata before similarity ranking.
Unique: Integrates semantic search directly into Strapi's query API rather than requiring separate search infrastructure; uses pgvector's native distance operators (cosine, L2) with optional IVFFlat indexing for performance, supporting both simple and filtered queries
