star history
Chonky provides intelligent text segmentation into meaningful semantic chunks via a neural approach. It uses a fine-tuned transformer model to determine natural paragraph boundaries, replacing heuristic text-splitting approaches in RAG pipelines. The library offers a simple ParagraphSplitter API that accepts text and yields coherent text chunks optimized for retrieval-augmented generation systems.
