Building AI Apps with
Merge Data: Vector Search
for Smarter Insights
Making Merge data AI-ready and accessible for smarter apps by seamlessly connecting Merge, Zilliz Cloud, and airbyte.
What is Merge and What's Its Data Like?
Merge is an integration platform that connects HR, payroll, accounting, and CRM systems through a unified API. It processes structured data, such as employee records, invoices, and sales leads, while also supporting semi-structured data, like custom fields. Developers use Merge to streamline integrations between disparate business tools, reducing the complexity of building and maintaining multiple APIs. Challenges include managing schema changes and consolidating structured data from diverse sources for unified analytics. Merge is widely used by SaaS providers aiming to simplify data interoperability across platforms.
Challenges for Building AI Apps with Merge Data
Unstructured Data
Much of Merge’s data is unstructured and multimodal. Standard database queries struggle with such text-heavy information, making it difficult to unlock its full potential.
Data Silos
Merge data often exists in isolation, making it challenging to integrate with other enterprise systems or data sources.
Scalability
Massive amounts of user interactions are logged daily, and processing and querying this data in real time requires robust infrastructure, especially when building AI-driven applications.
Personalization
AI apps require deep insights into customer behavior to offer personalized experiences. However, standard searches and SQL queries don’t adequately surface the relationships and similarities hidden in Merge data.
Fueling Merge AI Apps with Vector Search for Smarter Insights
Making Unstructured Data Searchable
Vector search enables AI to explore unstructured Merge data like text and images by comparing the meaning and context of each data point. This allows your AI apps to uncover actionable insights that were previously buried in complex records.
Going Beyond Keywords with Semantic Search
With vector similarity search, your AI apps are no longer limited to basic keyword matching. Vector search solutions like Zilliz Cloud perform deep, context-aware searches, identifying patterns and similarities across Merge data that traditional methods can’t reach.
Uncovering Hidden Relationships
Vector search finds subtle trends and connections within unstructured data. By identifying these hidden patterns, your AI apps generate more accurate predictions, smarter recommendations, and better overall results.
Scalability for Real-Time AI
Designed for speed and scale, vector search engines like Zilliz Cloud can process massive Merge datasets in real-time. Whether it’s handling billions of records or delivering instantaneous insights, vector search ensures your AI applications can perform at peak efficiency.
