FAQ

Is Pixlie an alternative to using vector databases?

Yes, Pixlie is an alternative to using vector databases. Vector databases are good for storing and querying semantic data, but they do not model the underlying data accurately. In Pixlie, we use LLMs to classify individual pieces of semantically meaningful data. Each individual entity, such as a person, place, date, event, etc., is stored separately in the graph, along with its relationships to other entities. This makes our graph based approach better where accuracy is important.

What is the difference between Domains, Links and WebPages?

Link Nodes are the URLs we discover using Brave & AI based on the Objective. When each Link Node is processed, we store domains for these Links in our database as separate nodes - one node for every domain.

We connect Domain Nodes to their Link Nodes in the following way:

Domain —OwnerOf—> Link(s)

Link —BelongsTo—> a Domain

As a part of the processing of Link Nodes, we then fetch their raw HTML content. Once we successfully fetch the content, we create a WebPage Node to store that content and then connect it to the Link Node:

Link —PathOf—> WebPage

and vice-versa

WebPage —ContentOf—> Link
