Oh interesting… I have the entire SEC database to index (only indexing the text in a sliver of it at the moment) and use tsvector and I could use something faster.

unrelated! full-text search vs vector search, and this has a more permissive license.

Ah, I remember now that ParadeDB's pitch was doing hybrid search by using pgvector with keyword rankings from pg_search. Never got the chance to try it.

Sometimes you want both. I wonder if there is a postgresql reranker…

(Tiger data employee fwiw)

We have an alternative full-text search extension as well, pg_textsearch that's completely open source that supports hybrid re-ranking

Here's a blog on it (i linked to the section on hybrid search, there's a code snippet for you in there)

We're big fans of extending Postgres for more and more usecases
