Aspect Database
Unified retrieval for RAG systems
Fixing the weakest link in RAG
Most RAG systems don’t fail at generation, they fail at retrieval. Today’s approach is fragmented:
• Vector search handles meaning
• Metadata is applied as filters
• Rerankers try to fix the gaps
This leads to complex pipelines and unreliable results.
Aspect Database replaces this with a single, unified model.
Vector Database+ vs. Aspect Database
One Representation. One Query. Better Results.
Aspect Database encodes semantics and metadata together into a single vector.
Instead of:
• Embedding + filters + reranking
You get:
• Multi-dimensional retrieval in one step
From Filters to Signals
Traditional systems ask:
“Does this document match the filter?”
Aspect Database asks:
“How much should this matter for relevance?”
This enables:
• Weighted ranking instead of hard constraints
• Context-aware retrieval
• More natural and accurate results
Built for RAG Developers
Better retrieval quality
Reduce hallucinations by retrieving the right context
Simpler architecture
Replace multi-stage pipelines with a single query
Scalable performance
Optimized vector search without filtering overhead
More expressive queries
Combine meaning, time, type, and context naturally
How it works
-
Documents are modeled as aspects (content, time, type, etc.)
-
Each aspect is encoded into a vector
-
All aspects are combined into a single structured embedding
-
Queries use the same structure for one-pass retrieval
