Personal Knowledgebase with DuckDuckGo + Qdrant
Create a domain-specific semantic index by pairing real-time DuckDuckGo search results with Qdrant storage, powered by LangDB.
This use case demonstrates how to build a private, self-updating knowledgebase using public web search (DuckDuckGo) and a vector database (Qdrant). By pairing search results with embeddings, you can create a local semantic index for recall, reasoning, or exploration later — all from a single prompt.
This Showcase Demonstrates:
Querying DuckDuckGo for relevant articles and insights.
Embedding the content into vector format using an LLM-powered embedding model.
Storing the semantic vectors into Qdrant for future retrieval via semantic search.
Why It Matters
Maintain your own always-updating, domain-specific research archive.
Avoid reliance on vendor-controlled platforms or search engines.
Enables AI-powered recall and insight generation from public sources.
