Vertical search is specialized search right? Are you building several specialized searches for various topics? Does this scale since you're offering a general purpose search in the end?
- jedwhite 5y agoYes, in this case it's not so much specialized indexes as topic-focused models and API handlers/brokers for different domains of knowledge. Although there are some areas where we're looking at building some more traditional limited crawler-based indexes where there aren't strong APIs to use already. Thanks for your encouragement and for trying out Andi too :)
