What it is
Refiner Js is a TypeScript package designed to convert text and metadata into vector embeddings using OpenAI's models. These embeddings are stored in Pinecone, a vector database, allowing for efficient querying and retrieval of contextually relevant metadata. The tool is open-source under the MIT license and is suitable for developers looking to integrate AI-powered search capabilities into their applications.
Combines OpenAI's embedding capabilities with Pinecone's storage in a TypeScript package.
