This is amazing. How do you search for two terms at once? e.g. "aboriginal" and "origin". Doesn't seem possible to require both terms are present.

Thanks! The search function is built with Algolia, I'm sure they support boolean ops like "AND" but I'll need to dig into their API. I think if you search both terms, transcripts containing both should be ranked higher.
I’m doing a similar personal product. Highly recommend switching to Typesense before your Algolia trial is up. I’ve heard good things about Meilisearch but Typesense has been rock solid for me.
I second that. Typesense is fantastic. I used it for a job board with 3 million and it did great.
Haven't heard about Typesense - thanks for the pointer! Btw if you want to trade notes on our projects, feel free to email me: team@podtext.ai
You might want to try semantic search instead of fiddling with keywords. Disclaimer: I'm building a plug-and-play semantic search API at https://kailualabs.com
I've been thinking about how to improve search, would love to try a demo of your product!
