Why 'Gorilla Suit' Won't Find 'Monkey Costume

Vector search finds ideas, not words. Type "gorilla suit" and get "monkey costume" because they mean the same thing. Lexical search matches exact terms, so it's better for filtering by price or color.

Vector Search has some amazing qualities to it. You can look for an idea as an idea because I'll say gorilla suit and it'll find documents with monkey costume because it's the same idea. You type in gorilla suit, it's not going to match monkey costume. The documents that most closely match my description but have a price in this range, have color equals red. That's something that Lexical Search is just good at.
