Manticore Search 25.0.0 brings a simpler bundle package, new auto-embedding controls, hybrid search, KNN prefiltering, S3-compatible backups, faster OPTIMIZE, and prepared statements.

Explains how KNN prefiltering in Manticore applies attribute filters during vector search, when ACORN-1 and brute-force fallback kick in, and when postfiltering is still preferable.

Manticore Search now supports parallel RT disk chunk merging and N-way merges, reducing compaction time dramatically while keeping ingest throughput stable.

Combine full-text and vector search in Manticore using RRF to get more precise results than either method alone.

Prepared statements in Manticore Search increase security by preventing SQL injection and make it easier to build queries since you don't have to worry about escaping in many cases. Learn how to use them over the MySQL protocol.
