AI Search
LinkBrain uses semantic AI search to find links by meaning, not just exact keywords.
How It Works
When you save a link, LinkBrain extracts the page content and generates an AI embedding — a numerical representation of what the page is about. When you search, your query is also converted to an embedding, and we find the closest matches.
This means you can search with:
- Natural language — "that article about CSS grid layouts"
- Concepts — "machine learning for beginners"
- Partial memories — "the startup funding guide I read last week"
Using Search
Open search with any of these methods:
- Click Search in the sidebar
- Press ⌘K to open the command palette
- Press S from any dashboard page
Results are ranked by relevance. Each result shows a similarity score and whether it matched via keyword or semantic search.
Search Tips
✅ Be specific: "React useEffect cleanup patterns" works better than "React"
✅ Use natural language: Write as if describing the page to a friend
✅ Filter by tag: Combine search with tag filters for precision
❌ Don't use boolean operators: AND/OR/NOT aren't needed — AI understands intent
Command Palette
Press ⌘K for the command palette — a quick-access search that also lets you navigate pages, run actions, and manage links without touching the mouse.
