Readwise Vector DB
Transforms your Readwise library into a self-hosted, semantically searchable database for highlights.
About
This tool empowers users to convert their personal Readwise highlights and reading library into a powerful, self-hosted semantic search engine. It automatically syncs highlights, generates embeddings using services like OpenAI, and stores them in a PostgreSQL database with pgvector. The system provides both a standard HTTP API for vector search and a streaming MCP server, making it accessible for integration with Large Language Models and other applications, all while offering Prometheus metrics for monitoring.
