About quivr

Quivr V2 is an open-source engine that turns continuous content streams into search and monitoring. It ingests content durably, makes text searchable within seconds, adds enrichments in the background, and allows following a topic over time.

It provides a Go API with REST v0, PostgreSQL for catalog and receipts, S3-compatible storage for canonical data, Temporal for orchestration, and Weaviate for lexical and vector search. Formats, models, and business rules are handled through plugins such as connectors, normalizers, enrichers, retrievers, and delivery channels. A single binary provides api, worker, and migrate commands, with local runtime via Docker Compose.

It suits developers evaluating infrastructure for search over changing content. The project states it is in evaluation stage with a v0 API that may change, and should not be run in production yet.

Key features

  • Durable content ingestion with committed writes and idempotency keys
  • Lexical and vector search using Weaviate with rehydrated hits
  • Background enrichment including embeddings via local TEI service
  • Plugin system for formats, models and business rules
  • Topic monitoring with polling and SSE change feeds
  • Single binary with api, worker and migrate commands
Best for: Developers evaluating a self-hosted engine for search and monitoring over continuous content streams.
Good for
  • Durable storage in PostgreSQL and S3 with rebuildable indexes
  • Generic core adaptable through plugins without forking
  • Text searchable quickly before enrichments complete
  • OpenAPI 3.1 contract and Docker Compose local runtime
Watch out for
  • In evaluation stage with v0 API that may change
  • Not for production use yet
  • Local setup requires multiple dependencies and large downloads
