-## 🧠 What Is Vector Search?
-
-Vector search is the process of finding the closest match(es) to a given vector (a point in high-dimensional space) based on a similarity or distance metric. It is essential for AI and machine learning applications where data is often encoded into vector embeddings.
-
-### Common Use Cases
-
-* **Semantic Search**: find documents, emails, or messages similar to a query
-* **Image Retrieval**: search for visually similar images
-* **Recommendation Systems**: match users with products, videos, or music
-* **Voice and Audio Search**: match voice queries or environmental sounds
-* **Anomaly Detection**: find outliers in real-time sensor data
-* **Robotics**: localize spatial features or behaviors using embedded observations
-
-In the AI era, embeddings are everywhere – from language models like GPT to vision transformers. Storing and searching them efficiently is the foundation of intelligent applications.

-### 🚀 Instant Vector Search – No Preindexing Required
-
-Unlike other SQLite vector extensions that rely on complex indexing algorithms such as DiskANN, HNSW, or IVF, which often require **preprocessing steps that can take hours or even days**, `sqlite-vector` works out of the box with your existing data. There’s **no need to preindex your vectors**—you can start performing fast, approximate or exact vector searches **immediately**.
-
-This means:
-
-* 🕒 **No waiting time** before your app or service is usable
-* 🔄 **Zero-cost updates** – you can add, remove, or modify vectors on the fly without rebuilding any index
-* ⚡ **Works directly with BLOB columns** in ordinary SQLite tables – no special schema or virtual table required
-* 🌍 **Ideal for edge and mobile use cases**, where preprocessing large datasets is not practical or possible
-
-By eliminating the need for heavyweight indexing, `sqlite-vector` offers a **simpler, faster, and more developer-friendly** approach to embedding vector search in your applications.

-## 🛠 Supported Vector Types
 
-You can store your vectors as `BLOB` columns in ordinary tables. Supported formats include:
-
-* `float32` (4 bytes per element)
-* `float16` (2 bytes per element)
-* `bfloat16` (2 bytes per element)
-* `int8` (1 byte per element)
-* `uint8` (1 byte per element)
+## 📦 Installation
 
-Simply insert a vector as a binary blob into your table. No special table types or schemas are required.
