Weaviate – Build your own generative health search engine
We are super excited to release our latest open-source demo, Healthsearch. This demo decodes user reviews of supplements and performs semantic- and generative search on them, retrieving the most related products for specific health effects, and leveraging Large Language Models to generate product and review summaries. The demo can understand natural language queries and derive all search filters directly from the context of your query.
Weaviate – Build your own generative health search engine launched on July 18, 2023 with 39 votes, #1,396 of 4,347 launches that month and more than 90% of that year's launches. The site was still online in September 2026, 3 years on.
In plain words
Healthsearch is an open-source demo that searches supplement products using natural language queries and semantic search technology. It analyzes user reviews to find products matching specific health effects and generates summaries using large language models. Built on Weaviate, the tool understands conversational queries and automatically extracts relevant search filters from context, making it useful for developers building health-focused search applications.

- WSWeb 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…
I put PubMed in a vector DB2024 · pubmedisearch.com · ▲97Hi HN, As a researcher, I often found myself struggling with the limitations of keyword-based search when exploring PubMed papers. To address this, I created PubMed Search (https://www.pubmedisearch.com/), a tool that leverages a vector database to enable semantic search across medical research literature. Some key features: * Daily updates to ensure access to the latest articles * Semantic search using latest & greatest embedding models * Some additional useful info about the papers (tldr, journal, publication date, etc.) Hope you find it useful!

A search engine based on social signals2013 · buzzsumo.com · ▲46We built a search engine that shows you the most engaging stories/topics being shared across Twitter, Facebook, Linkedin, and Google+. We crawled over 15 million articles the past 3 months, retrieved the total number of Facebook likes, tweets, Google+’s etc and built a search index around it. Here's what our infrastructure looks like: Rails/Redis: We use the Sidekiq gem as a message queue. We have hundreds of workers that do the crawling, data mining, and number crunching. ElasticSearch: We built the search index using ElasticSearch, with the data imported from our Postgres…

Talanoa▲346Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

I saw this [0] pretty cool thread by user revskill, and wanted a quicker way to search through it, but also to keep them all in one place so I can read them at my leisure whenever I get time. Right now is like 60 lines of Ruby using Nokogiri, but I will certainly look into it further down the line and improve the list. There's a cronjob checking the thread every 12 hours but I will eventually shut that down and it will become static after that. There are some really awesome blogs in there. I really recommend going through the list, it made my day. [0] "Could you share your personal blog…
