What it does

Retrieval Architecture is a technical GEO/AEO consultancy. Audit website architectures for RAG systems, passage retrieval, and Wikidata entities.

When ChatGPT, Perplexity, or Gemini answer a question about your product, they cite you or a competitor. I find the technical reasons your site gets skipped, how it renders, how it's structured, how your brand is identified, and fix them. AI engines don't rank pages by keywords anymore. They break your site into chunks, match those chunks by meaning, and check whether your brand is a recognized, disambiguated entity. Here's what that looks like in practice. Retrieval-Augmented Generation systems break documents into blocks. Clean DOM elements determine the quality of the generated vector embeddings. AI models associate product names and brands with standard knowledge databases (such as…from retrieval-architecture.vercel.app

    Web search using a ChatGPT-like model that can cite its sources2022 · beta.sayhello.so · ▲318

    We’ve trained a generative AI model to browse the web and answer questions/retrieve code snippets directly. Unlike ChatGPT, it has access to primary sources and is able to cite them when you hover over an answer (click on the text to go to the source being cited). We also show regular Bing results side-by-side with our AI answer. The model is an 11-billion parameter T5-derivative that has been fine-tuned on feedback given on hundreds of thousands of searches done (anonymously) on our platform. Giving the model web access lessens its burden to need to store a snapshot of human knowledge…

  • Hey HN, We recently built Clipto. It’s a tool that lets you search over terabytes of video, audio, and images on your computer, without relying on the cloud. Motivation: we probably all had this similar experience, we know a moment exists in a video or audio, but finding it takes hours scrubbing the timeline. You can send all the media to process in the cloud, but it’s slow, expensive and raises privacy concerns. So we decided to build our own on-device media search engine. How it works (high level): 1. We ingest video, audio, image; normalize formats via ffmpeg; run content analysis to…

  • Hello HN! I found that picking out plausible but diverse skin tones for my digital art and game development projects was kind of difficult, and I got curious about if there was a way to define a color space that made it easy. I've built a color picker and procedural generation algorithm based on the space as well as a bunch of other fun js features and demos throughout the page that use the equations. If you find it interesting, I have lots of explanations of how I built it and what properties the space has. The methodology might be a bit shaky, but hopefully the result is as helpful for…
