Vector DB visualizer

A data exploration tool for understanding how documents become vectors, how similarity works, and why a retrieval result appears.

Live demo coming soon

01 / The idea

What I'm exploring

Vector search is easy to describe and surprisingly hard to feel. This project aims to make the movement from text to embedding to result visible.

The interface is designed for exploration: compare neighborhoods, inspect metadata, and understand why a result was selected.

02 / The approach

Small steps, visible trade-offs.

  • Visualize the relationship between source text, vectors, and retrieval results.
  • Keep the data model close to the explanation shown in the interface.
  • Use small datasets first so the visual story stays understandable.

03 / The outcome

What success looks like.

A clear, hands-on explanation of retrieval that can grow into a practical debugging tool.
