w2vgrep is a semantic grep tool

w2vgrep is a command-line tool that performs semantic searches on text input using word embeddings.

It’s designed to find semantically similar matches to the query, going beyond simple string matching. Supports multiple languages. The experience is designed to be similar to grep.

w2vgrep requires a word embedding model in binary format. The default model loader uses the model file’s extension to determine the type (.bin, .8bit.int). A few compatible model files are also available.

This is free and open source software.

Features include:

• Semantic search using word embeddings.
• Configurable similarity threshold.
• Context display (before and after matching lines).
• Color-coded output.
• Support for multiple languages.
• Read from files or stdin.
• Configurable via JSON file and command-line arguments.
