What is Semantic search?
Semantic search finds text by meaning rather than exact keywords, using embeddings to match passages that are about the same thing even when they share no words.

What it means.
- A pure keyword search misses “the pricing discussion” when nobody actually said “pricing”; hybrid approaches combine keyword and semantic matching so both kinds of query land.
- Humla's chat retrieval is hybrid — keyword and meaning together — so a question finds the right stretch of a meeting even when the wording is different from what was said.
