How it works

Configure your instance

Choose source relays, indexing intervals, safety policies, cache settings and API limits.

Operate it safely

Check indexing progress, trigger a rolling rebuild, preserve persistent data and protect administrative services.

Understand search

Follow signed Nostr events through metadata extraction, enrichment, indexing, ranking and safety filtering.

Integrate the API

Use full-text search, tag browsing, people search, completions and related-video recommendations.
