Semantic graph search

Definition

Semantic graph search lets Quri chat find the right emails, chat summaries and recommendations by meaning, not exact words. It turns your question into a vector, compares it against everything Quri has written down, and returns the closest records — so "what did we tell users about the checkout bug?" surfaces the message even if it never said "checkout".

How to do this in Quri

  1. Connect your sources so Quri keeps writing emails, chat summaries and recommendations into the graph.
  2. Ask a meaning-based question in /app/chat, like "find the notes about slow checkout".
  3. Quri embeds your question and ranks the stored records by how close they are in meaning.
  4. Open the records it cites to read the exact emails or recommendations behind the answer.

Frequently asked

How is this different from searching for a keyword?
It matches on meaning, so a search for "checkout bug" still finds a message that said "payment failed at the cart" — the words differ but the intent is the same.
Where do the embeddings come from?
Quri embeds your records as it ingests them, using a local model by default so nothing leaves your environment and there is no per-word cost. Only your live question is embedded at the moment you ask.
