Features

• Typo Tolerance: Handles typographical errors elegantly, out-of-the-box.
• Simple and Delightful: Simple to set-up, integrate with, operate and scale.
• Blazing Fast: Built in C++. Meticulously architected from the ground-up for low-latency (<50ms) instant searches.
• Tunable Ranking: Easy to tailor your search results to perfection.
• Sorting: Dynamically sort results based on a particular field at query time (helpful for features like "Sort by Price (asc)").
• Faceting & Filtering: Drill down and refine results.
• Grouping & Distinct: Group similar results together to show more variety.
• Federated Search: Search across multiple collections (indices) in a single HTTP request.
• Vector Search: Index embeddings from your machine learning models in Typesense and do a nearest-neighbor search. Can be used to build similarity search, semantic search, visual search, recommendations, etc.
• Scoped API Keys: Generate API keys that only allow access to certain records, for multi-tenant applications.
• Synonyms: Define words as equivalents of each other, so searching for a word will also return results for the synonyms defined.
• Curation & Merchandizing: Boost particular records to a fixed position in the search results, to feature them.
• Raft-based Clustering: Setup a distributed cluster that is highly available.
• Seamless Version Upgrades: As new versions of Typesense come out, upgrading is as simple as swapping out the binary and restarting Typesense.
• No Runtime Dependencies: Typesense is a single binary that you can run locally or in production with a single command.
