# Building a Semantic Similarity Search API with FastAPI, Sentence-BERT, and PostgreSQL pgvector

In this article, I share how I built a **semantic similarity search API** using **FastAPI**, **Sentence-BERT (SBERT)**, and **PostgreSQL with pgvector**.  
The idea was to test whether we can achieve **context-aware text search** directly inside Postgres, without adding a separate vector database.  
It turned out to be a simple yet powerful setup — perfect for real-world applications and quick POCs alike.
