2.9 Breakout Magnitude out of 10. Star growth looks organic. Data as of September 14, 2026.

About the project

A Rust vector index with Python bindings built on the TurboQuant algorithm for compressed embeddings and fast nearest-neighbor search without training.

Useful for

Build a local RAG stack with private vector search and no managed services
Speed up search over 10M documents by fitting the index in 4 GB RAM instead of 31 GB
Filter search results by an allowlist from SQL or BM25 inside the SIMD kernel

Star trust

Growth looks organic: forks and discussion are in line with active projects, and stars arrive unevenly, the way people give them.

These are heuristics, not a verdict: we judge by the repository’s behavior, not by a list of stargazers.
