  • AI Launchpad 2025: TopK

    Marek Galovic and Jerguš Lejko share insights from TopK's unified search platform that drastically simplifies the modern search stack into a single API, exploring how they moved beyond vector database abstractions to production-ready search solutions. After building one of the market's most popular vector databases, this session offers valuable perspectives on unifying dense/sparse vector, text, and faceted retrieval with custom scoring, designed for teams seeking to reduce time-to-value in search implementations.
