Assistant quickstart
Create an AI assistant that answers complex questions about your proprietary data
Workflows
Embed data
Use an embedding model to convert data into vector embeddings, the data format required for similarity search.
Create an index
Create an index to store your vector embeddings. Specify the dimension and similarity metric of the embedding model you used.
Ingest data
Load vector embeddings and metadata into your index using Pinecone’s import or upsert feature. Use namespaces to partition data for faster queries and multitenant isolation between customers.
Search
Convert queries into vector embeddings and use them to search your index for vectors that are semantically similar.
Optimize performance
Filter queries by metadata to limit the scope of your search, rerank results based on their relevance to the query, or use hybrid search to combine the strengths of both similarity and keyword searching.
