Obsidian Graph FAQs

Question 1

What is Obsidian Graph?

Obsidian Graph is an AI-powered semantic knowledge graph engine that discovers hidden connections and relationships within your markdown notes, going beyond simple keywords or explicit links.

Do I need to be an Obsidian user to use this tool?

Accepted Answer

While optimized for Obsidian vaults, Obsidian Graph is compatible with any folder containing markdown files, making it versatile for various note-taking systems.

It provides Semantic Search, multi-hop Connection Discovery, Hub Analysis to find central ideas (MOCs), and Orphan Detection for isolated insights, all with auto-indexing.

Question 4

How does Obsidian Graph identify connections?

You'll need a Voyage AI API key (with an active payment method for robust rate limits), Docker installed, and the absolute path to your markdown vault. PostgreSQL is automatically set up via Docker.
