Search tips and best practices

Get better results with specific queries, filters, and search strategies.

Get better search results with these tips:

Be specific

Instead of "meeting", try "product roadmap meeting with Sarah". More context helps both text and semantic search.

Use natural language for semantic search

Semantic search understands meaning. Ask questions like "why did we change the pricing model?" and it will find relevant memories even if they don't contain those exact words.

Switch modes when needed

If hybrid gives too many results, switch to text-only for precision. If you can't find what you need with keywords, try semantic-only.

Tip

Search results show colored badges for memory types - use these to quickly scan for the right kind of memory.
