**A powerful graph & vector data platform for AI applications across any environment**
|
||
|
||
</div>
|
||
|
||
## ✨ What is Brainy?
|
||
|
||
Imagine a database that thinks like you do - connecting ideas, finding patterns, and getting smarter over time. Brainy
|
||
is the **AI-native database** that brings vector search and knowledge graphs together in one powerful, ridiculously
|
||
easy-to-use package.
|
||
|
||
### 🆕 NEW: Distributed Mode (v0.38+)
|
||
|
||
**Scale horizontally with zero configuration!** Brainy now supports distributed deployments with automatic coordination:
|
||
|
||
- **🌐 Multi-Instance Coordination** - Multiple readers and writers working in harmony
|
||
- **🏷️ Smart Domain Detection** - Automatically categorizes data (medical, legal, product, etc.)
|
||
- **📊 Real-Time Health Monitoring** - Track performance across all instances
|
||
- **🔄 Automatic Role Optimization** - Readers optimize for cache, writers for throughput
|
||
- **🗂️ Intelligent Partitioning** - Hash-based partitioning for perfect load distribution
|
||
|
||
### 🚀 Why Developers Love Brainy
|
||
|
||
- **🧠 Zero-to-Smart™** - No config files, no tuning parameters, no DevOps headaches. Brainy auto-detects your
|
||
environment and optimizes itself
|
||
- **🌍 True Write-Once, Run-Anywhere** - Same code runs in Angular, React, Vue, Node.js, Deno, Bun, serverless, edge workers, and web workers with automatic environment detection
|
||
- **⚡ Scary Fast** - Handles millions of vectors with sub-millisecond search. Built-in GPU acceleration when available
|
||
- **🎯 Self-Learning** - Like having a database that goes to the gym. Gets faster and smarter the more you use it
|
||
- **🔮 AI-First Design** - Built for the age of embeddings, RAG, and semantic search. Your LLMs will thank you
|
||
- **🎮 Actually Fun to Use** - Clean API, great DX, and it does the heavy lifting so you can build cool stuff
|
||
|
||
### 🚀 NEW: Ultra-Fast Search Performance + Auto-Configuration
|
||
|
||
**Your searches just got 100x faster AND Brainy now configures itself!** Advanced performance with zero setup:
|
||
|
||
- **🤖 Intelligent Auto-Configuration** - Detects environment and usage patterns, optimizes automatically
|
||
- **⚡ Smart Result Caching** - Repeated queries return in <1ms with automatic cache invalidation
|
||
- **📄 Cursor-Based Pagination** - Navigate millions of results with constant O(k) performance
|
||
- **🔄 Real-Time Data Sync** - Cache automatically updates when data changes, even in distributed scenarios
|
||
- **📊 Performance Monitoring** - Built-in hit rate and memory usage tracking with adaptive optimization
|
||
- **🎯 Zero Breaking Changes** - All existing code works unchanged, just faster and smarter
|
||
|
||
## 📦 Get Started in 30 Seconds
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
npm install @soulcraft/brainy
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
```javascript
|
||
import { BrainyData } from '@soulcraft/brainy'
|
||
|
||
const brainy = new BrainyData()
|
||
await brainy.init() // Auto-detects your environment
|
||
|
||
// Add some data
|
||
await brainy.add("The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog")
|
||
await brainy.add("A fast fox leaps over a sleeping dog")
|
||
await brainy.add("Cats are independent and mysterious animals")
|
||
|
||
// Vector search finds similar content
|
||
const results = await brainy.search("speedy animals jumping", 2)
|
||
console.log(results) // Finds the fox sentences!
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
**🎯 That's it!** You just built semantic search in 4 lines. Works in Angular, React, Vue, Node.js, browsers, serverless - everywhere.
|
||
|
||
## 🚀 The Magic: Vector + Graph Database
|
||
|
||
**Most databases do one thing.** Brainy does both vector similarity AND graph relationships:
|
||
|
||
```javascript
|
||
// Add entities with relationships
|
||
const companyId = await brainy.addNoun("OpenAI creates powerful AI models", "company")
|
||
const productId = await brainy.addNoun("GPT-4 is a large language model", "product")
|
||
|
||
// Connect them with relationships
|
||
await brainy.addVerb(companyId, productId, undefined, { type: "develops" })
|
||
|
||
// Now you can do BOTH:
|
||
const similar = await brainy.search("AI language models") // Vector similarity
|
||
const products = await brainy.getVerbsByType("develops") // Graph traversal
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
**Why this matters:** Find content by meaning AND follow relationships. It's like having PostgreSQL and Pinecone working together seamlessly.
|
||
|
||
### 🔍 Want More Power?
|
||
- **Advanced graph traversal** - Complex relationship queries and multi-hop searches
|
||
- **Distributed clustering** - Scale across multiple instances with automatic coordination
|
||
- **Real-time syncing** - WebSocket and WebRTC for live data updates
|
||
- **Custom augmentations** - Extend Brainy with your own functionality
|
||
|
||
*[See full API documentation below](#-installation) for advanced features*
|
||
|
||
## 🎨 Build Amazing Things
|
||
|
||
**🤖 AI Chat Applications** - Build ChatGPT-like apps with long-term memory and context awareness
|
||
**🔍 Semantic Search Engines** - Search by meaning, not keywords. Find "that thing that's like a cat but bigger" →
|
||
returns "tiger"
|
||
**🎯 Recommendation Engines** - "Users who liked this also liked..." but actually good
|
||
**🧬 Knowledge Graphs** - Connect everything to everything. Wikipedia meets Neo4j meets magic
|
||
**👁️ Computer Vision Apps** - Store and search image embeddings. "Find all photos with dogs wearing hats"
|
||
**🎵 Music Discovery** - Find songs that "feel" similar. Spotify's Discover Weekly in your app
|
||
**📚 Smart Documentation** - Docs that answer questions. "How do I deploy to production?" → relevant guides
|
||
**🛡️ Fraud Detection** - Find patterns humans can't see. Anomaly detection on steroids
|
||
**🌐 Real-Time Collaboration** - Sync vector data across devices. Figma for AI data
|
||
**🏥 Medical Diagnosis Tools** - Match symptoms to conditions using embedding similarity
|
||
|
||
## 🚀 Write-Once, Run-Anywhere Quick Start
|
||
|
||
Brainy uses the same code across all environments with automatic detection. **Framework-optimized** for the best developer experience. Choose your environment:

### ✨ Write-Once, Run-Anywhere Architecture
|
||
|
||
**Same code, every environment.** Brainy auto-detects and optimizes for your runtime:
|
||
|
||
```javascript
|
||
// This exact code works in Angular, React, Vue, Node.js, Deno, Bun,
|
||
// serverless functions, edge workers, and web workers
|
||
import { BrainyData } from '@soulcraft/brainy'
|
||
|
||
const brainy = new BrainyData()
|
||
await brainy.init() // Auto-detects environment and chooses optimal storage
|
||
|
||
// Vector + Graph: Add entities (nouns) with relationships (verbs)
|
||
const companyId = await brainy.addNoun("OpenAI creates powerful AI models", "company", {
|
||
founded: "2015", industry: "AI"
|
||
})
|
||
const productId = await brainy.addNoun("GPT-4 is a large language model", "product", {
|
||
type: "LLM", parameters: "1.7T"
|
||
})
|
||
|
||
// Create relationships between entities
|
||
await brainy.addVerb(companyId, productId, undefined, { type: "develops" })
|
||
|
||
// Vector search finds semantically similar content
|
||
const similar = await brainy.search("AI language models", 5)
|
||
|
||
// Graph operations: explore relationships
|
||
const relationships = await brainy.getVerbsBySource(companyId)
|
||
const allProducts = await brainy.getVerbsByType("develops")
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### 🔍 Advanced Graph Operations
|
||
|
||
```javascript
|
||
// Vector search with graph filtering
|
||
const results = await brainy.search("AI models", 10, {
|
||
searchVerbs: true, // Search relationships directly
|
||
verbTypes: ["develops"], // Filter by relationship types
|
||
searchConnectedNouns: true, // Find entities connected by relationships
|
||
verbDirection: "outgoing" // Direction: outgoing, incoming, or both
|
||
})
|
||
|
||
// Graph traversal methods
|
||
const outgoing = await brainy.getVerbsBySource(entityId) // What this entity relates to
|
||
const incoming = await brainy.getVerbsByTarget(entityId) // What relates to this entity
|
||
const byType = await brainy.getVerbsByType("develops") // All relationships of this type
|
||
|
||
// Combined vector + graph search
|
||
const connected = await brainy.searchNounsByVerbs("machine learning", 5, {
|
||
verbTypes: ["develops", "uses"],
|
||
direction: "both"
|
||
})
|
||
|
||
// Get related entities through specific relationships
|
||
const related = await brainy.getRelatedNouns(companyId, { relationType: "develops" })
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
**Universal benefits:**
|
||
- ✅ **Auto-detects everything** - Environment, storage, threading, optimization
|
||
- ✅ **Framework-optimized** - Best experience with Angular, React, Vue bundlers
|
||
- ✅ **Runtime-agnostic** - Node.js, Deno, Bun, browsers, serverless, edge
|
||
- ✅ **TypeScript-first** - Full types everywhere, IntelliSense support
|
||

|
||
|
||
### Production: Add Offline Model Reliability
|
||
```bash
|
||
# For development (online model loading)
|
||
npm install @soulcraft/brainy
|
||
|
||
# For production (offline reliability)
|
||
npm install @soulcraft/brainy @soulcraft/brainy-models
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
**Why use offline models in production?**
|
||
- **🛡️ 100% Reliability** - No network timeouts or blocked URLs
|
||
- **⚡ Instant Startup** - Models load in ~100ms vs 5-30 seconds
|
||
- **🐳 Docker Ready** - Perfect for Cloud Run, Lambda, Kubernetes
|
||
- **🔒 Zero Dependencies** - No external network calls required
|
||
- **🎯 Zero Configuration** - Automatic detection with graceful fallback
|
||
- **🔐 Enhanced Security** - Complete air-gapping support for sensitive environments
|
||
- **🏢 Enterprise Ready** - Works behind corporate firewalls and restricted networks
|
||
|
||
The offline models provide the **same functionality** with maximum reliability. Your existing code works unchanged - Brainy automatically detects and uses bundled models when available.
|
||
|
||
```javascript
|
||
import { createAutoBrainy } from 'brainy'
|
||
import { BundledUniversalSentenceEncoder } from '@soulcraft/brainy-models'
|
||
|
||
// Use the bundled model for offline operation
|
||
const brainy = createAutoBrainy({
|
||
embeddingModel: BundledUniversalSentenceEncoder
|
||
})
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## 🐳 Docker & Cloud Deployment

|
||
|
||
### 📦 Modern ES Modules Architecture
|
||
|
||
Brainy now uses individual ES modules instead of large bundles, providing better optimization for modern frameworks:
|
||
|
||
- **Better tree-shaking**: Frameworks import only the specific functions you use
|
||
- **Smaller final apps**: Your bundled application only includes what you actually need
|
||
- **Faster development builds**: No complex bundling during development
|
||
- **Better debugging**: Source maps point to individual files, not large bundles
|
||
|
||
This change reduced the package size significantly while improving compatibility with Angular, React, Vue, and other modern framework build systems.
|
||
|
||
## 🧬 The Power of Nouns & Verbs
|
||
|
||
Brainy uses a **graph-based data model** that mirrors how humans think - with **Nouns** (entities) connected by **Verbs
|
||
** (relationships). This isn't just vectors in a void; it's structured, meaningful data.
|
||
|
||
### 📝 Nouns (What Things Are)
|
||
|
||
Nouns are your entities - the "things" in your data. Each noun has:
|
||
|
||
- A unique ID
|
||
- A vector representation (for similarity search)
|
||
- A type (Person, Document, Concept, etc.)
|
||
- Custom metadata
|
||
|
||
**Available Noun Types:**
|
||
|
||
| Category | Types | Use For |
|
||
|---------------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------|-------------------------------------------------------|
|
||
| **Core Entities** | `Person`, `Organization`, `Location`, `Thing`, `Concept`, `Event` | People, companies, places, objects, ideas, happenings |
|
||
| **Digital Content** | `Document`, `Media`, `File`, `Message`, `Content` | PDFs, images, videos, emails, posts, generic content |
|
||
| **Collections** | `Collection`, `Dataset` | Groups of items, structured data sets |
|
||
| **Business** | `Product`, `Service`, `User`, `Task`, `Project` | E-commerce, SaaS, project management |
|
||
| **Descriptive** | `Process`, `State`, `Role` | Workflows, conditions, responsibilities |
|
||
|
||
### 🔗 Verbs (How Things Connect)
|
||
|
||
Verbs are your relationships - they give meaning to connections. Not just "these vectors are similar" but "this OWNS
|
||
that" or "this CAUSES that".
|
||
|
||
**Available Verb Types:**
|
||
|
||
| Category | Types | Examples |
|
||
|----------------|----------------------------------------------------------------------|------------------------------------------|
|
||
| **Core** | `RelatedTo`, `Contains`, `PartOf`, `LocatedAt`, `References` | Generic relations, containment, location |
|
||
| **Temporal** | `Precedes`, `Succeeds`, `Causes`, `DependsOn`, `Requires` | Time sequences, causality, dependencies |
|
||
| **Creation** | `Creates`, `Transforms`, `Becomes`, `Modifies`, `Consumes` | Creation, change, consumption |
|
||
| **Ownership** | `Owns`, `AttributedTo`, `CreatedBy`, `BelongsTo` | Ownership, authorship, belonging |
|
||
| **Social** | `MemberOf`, `WorksWith`, `FriendOf`, `Follows`, `Likes`, `ReportsTo` | Social networks, organizations |
|
||
| **Functional** | `Describes`, `Implements`, `Validates`, `Triggers`, `Serves` | Functions, implementations, services |
|
||
|
||
### 💡 Why This Matters
|
||
|
||
```javascript
|
||
// Traditional vector DB: Just similarity
|
||
const similar = await vectorDB.search(embedding, 10)
|
||
// Result: [vector1, vector2, ...] - What do these mean? 🤷
|
||
|
||
// Brainy: Similarity + Meaning + Relationships
|
||
const catId = await brainy.add("Siamese cat", {
|
||
noun: NounType.Thing,
|
||
breed: "Siamese"
|
||
})
|
||
const ownerId = await brainy.add("John Smith", {
|
||
noun: NounType.Person
|
||
})
|
||
await brainy.addVerb(ownerId, catId, {
|
||
verb: VerbType.Owns,
|
||
since: "2020-01-01"
|
||
})
|
||
|
||
// Now you can search with context!
|
||
const johnsPets = await brainy.getVerbsBySource(ownerId, VerbType.Owns)
|
||
const catOwners = await brainy.getVerbsByTarget(catId, VerbType.Owns)
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## 🌍 Distributed Mode (New!)
|
||
|
||
Brainy now supports **distributed deployments** with multiple specialized instances sharing the same data. Perfect for
|
||
scaling your AI applications across multiple servers.
|
||
|
||
### Distributed Setup
|
||
|
||
```javascript
|
||
// Single instance (no change needed!)
|
||
const brainy = createAutoBrainy({
|
||
storage: { s3Storage: { bucketName: 'my-bucket' } }
|
||
})
|
||
|
||
// Distributed mode requires explicit role configuration
|
||
// Option 1: Via environment variable
|
||
process.env.BRAINY_ROLE = 'writer' // or 'reader' or 'hybrid'
|
||
const brainy = createAutoBrainy({
|
||
storage: { s3Storage: { bucketName: 'my-bucket' } },
|
||
distributed: true
|
||
})
|
||
|
||
// Option 2: Via configuration
|
||
const writer = createAutoBrainy({
|
||
storage: { s3Storage: { bucketName: 'my-bucket' } },
|
||
distributed: { role: 'writer' } // Handles data ingestion
|
||
})
|
||
|
||
const reader = createAutoBrainy({
|
||
storage: { s3Storage: { bucketName: 'my-bucket' } },
|
||
distributed: { role: 'reader' } // Optimized for queries
|
||
})
|
||
|
||
// Option 3: Via read/write mode (role auto-inferred)
|
||
const writer = createAutoBrainy({
|
||
storage: { s3Storage: { bucketName: 'my-bucket' } },
|
||
writeOnly: true, // Automatically becomes 'writer' role
|
||
distributed: true
|
||
})
|
||
|
||
const reader = createAutoBrainy({
|
||
storage: { s3Storage: { bucketName: 'my-bucket' } },
|
||
readOnly: true, // Automatically becomes 'reader' role
|
||
distributed: true
|
||
})
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Key Distributed Features
|
||
|
||
**🎯 Explicit Role Configuration**
|
||
|
||
- Roles must be explicitly set (no dangerous auto-assignment)
|
||
- Can use environment variables, config, or read/write modes
|
||
- Clear separation between writers and readers
|
||
|
||
**#️⃣ Hash-Based Partitioning**
|
||
|
||
- Handles multiple writers with different data types
|
||
- Even distribution across partitions
|
||
- No semantic conflicts with mixed data
|
||
|
||
**🏷️ Domain Tagging**
|
||
|
||
- Automatic domain detection (medical, legal, product, etc.)
|
||
- Filter searches by domain
|
||
- Logical separation without complexity
|
||
|
||
```javascript
|
||
// Data is automatically tagged with domains
|
||
await brainy.add({
|
||
symptoms: "fever",
|
||
diagnosis: "flu"
|
||
}, metadata) // Auto-tagged as 'medical'
|
||
|
||
// Search within specific domains
|
||
const medicalResults = await brainy.search(query, 10, {
|
||
filter: { domain: 'medical' }
|
||
})
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
**📊 Health Monitoring**
|
||
|
||
- Real-time health metrics
|
||
- Automatic dead instance cleanup
|
||
- Performance tracking
|
||
|
||
```javascript
|
||
// Get health status
|
||
const health = brainy.getHealthStatus()
|
||
// {
|
||
// status: 'healthy',
|
||
// role: 'reader',
|
||
// vectorCount: 1000000,
|
||
// cacheHitRate: 0.95,
|
||
// requestsPerSecond: 150
|
||
// }
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
**⚡ Role-Optimized Performance**
|
||
|
||
- **Readers**: 80% memory for cache, aggressive prefetching
|
||
- **Writers**: Optimized write batching, minimal cache
|
||
- **Hybrid**: Adaptive based on workload
|
||
|
||

## 🚀 Quick Examples
|
||
|
||
### Basic Usage
|
||
|
||
```javascript
|
||
import { BrainyData, NounType, VerbType } from 'brainy'
|
||
|
||
// Initialize
|
||
const db = new BrainyData()
|
||
await db.init()
|
||
|
||
// Add data (automatically vectorized)
|
||
const catId = await db.add("Cats are independent pets", {
|
||
noun: NounType.Thing,
|
||
category: 'animal'
|
||
})
|
||
|
||
// Search for similar items
|
||
const results = await db.searchText("feline pets", 5)
|
||
|
||
// Add relationships
|
||
await db.addVerb(catId, dogId, {
|
||
verb: VerbType.RelatedTo,
|
||
description: 'Both are pets'
|
||
})
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### AutoBrainy (Recommended)
|
||
|
||
```javascript
|
||
import { createAutoBrainy } from 'brainy'
|
||
|
||
// Everything auto-configured!
|
||
const brainy = createAutoBrainy()
|
||
|
||
// Just start using it
|
||
await brainy.addVector({ id: '1', vector: [0.1, 0.2, 0.3], text: 'Hello' })
|
||
const results = await brainy.search([0.1, 0.2, 0.3], 10)
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Scenario-Based Setup
|
||
|
||
```javascript
|
||
import { createQuickBrainy } from 'brainy'
|
||
|
||
// Choose your scale: 'small', 'medium', 'large', 'enterprise'
|
||
const brainy = await createQuickBrainy('large', {
|
||
bucketName: 'my-vector-db'
|
||
})
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### With Offline Models
|
||
|
||
```javascript
|
||
import { createAutoBrainy } from 'brainy'
|
||
import { BundledUniversalSentenceEncoder } from '@soulcraft/brainy-models'
|
||
|
||
// Use bundled model for offline operation
|
||
const brainy = createAutoBrainy({
|
||
embeddingModel: BundledUniversalSentenceEncoder,
|
||
// Model loads from local files, no network needed!
|
||
})
|
||
|
||
// Works exactly the same, but 100% offline
|
||
await brainy.add("This works without internet!", {
|
||
noun: NounType.Content
|
||
})
|
||
```
