# LEANN - The smallest vector index in the world
LEANN is a revolutionary vector database that democratizes personal AI. Transform your laptop into a powerful RAG system that can index and search through millions of documents while using **97% less storage** than traditional solutions **without accuracy loss**.
## Installation
```bash
# Default installation (includes both HNSW and DiskANN backends)
uv pip install leann
```
## Quick Start
```python
from leann import LeannBuilder, LeannSearcher, LeannChat
from pathlib import Path
INDEX_PATH = str(Path("./").resolve() / "demo.leann")
# Build an index (choose backend: "hnsw" or "diskann")
builder = LeannBuilder(backend_name="hnsw") # or "diskann" for large-scale deployments
builder.add_text("LEANN saves 97% storage compared to traditional vector databases.")
builder.add_text("Tung Tung Tung Sahur called—they need their bananacrocodile hybrid back")
builder.build_index(INDEX_PATH)
# Search
searcher = LeannSearcher(INDEX_PATH)
results = searcher.search("fantastical AI-generated creatures", top_k=1)
# Chat with your data
chat = LeannChat(INDEX_PATH, llm_config={"type": "hf", "model": "Qwen/Qwen3-0.6B"})
response = chat.ask("How much storage does LEANN save?", top_k=1)
```
