# Chunk search

Chunk search provides us a way to search through parts of a document. For example - you may have a paragraph of text. You can then split up that paragraph of text into sentences and then create a `chunkvector` out of each. You can then search through the chunkvectors to obtain the most relevant part of that paragraph for your needs.&#x20;

Chunkvectors can be useful for improving the explainability of search. If you are interested in testing chunk search out, there are a few endpoints (all with guides written to them and use cases).
