Runtime modes

The same application in the cloud or behind locked doors

The search core is identical in both modes — the $rankFusion hybrid query runs the same way in MongoDB Atlas and in the self-hosted Community edition. Only three swappable adapters differ, and they are chosen by tenant configuration, not by changing code.

Cloud

Managed operation in the EU

MongoDB Atlas in a European region, embedding and reranking directly in the database, generation via the Claude API. No hardware to buy, deployed in days.

  • Automated Embedding — vectors are created inside the database
  • Verifiable citations via the Citations API
  • No upfront hardware investment, you pay per query
On-prem

A closed solution on your own hardware

MongoDB Community 8.2 on your own machine, embedding and reranking via Infinity or TEI, generation via vLLM. Neither content nor queries leave your perimeter.

  • Suitable for special categories of data and classified information
  • Your choice of model — Qwen3, EuroLLM, Gemma and others
  • Works fully air-gapped, with no internet connection

Three swappable adapters

CloudOn-prem
Embedding
Understands meaning, not just words

Turns every paragraph into a numeric fingerprint of its meaning. That is how it finds the right passage even when you phrased things differently from the regulation — ask about “what you pay for a transfer” and it returns the article on transfer fees.

Rerank
A second reading that fixes the order

The first pass is fast but rough — it sweeps thousands of paragraphs and picks dozens of candidates. Rerank reads those carefully alongside the question and reorders them so the most precise one ends up at the very top.

Generation
Writes the answer and shows its sources

Composes a plain-language answer from the retrieved passages and attaches the regulation and article behind every claim. When the answer is not in the material, it says so — instead of inventing one.

The choice is per tenant — a single installation serves cloud and on-prem customers at the same time.

Deployment options

Two ways to deploy Contineo

Use Contineo as a locked-down company portal, or as embedded intelligent search right inside your website.

Intranet

Standalone portal on a subdomain

Search and a portal of company content on your subdomain (e.g. search.yourcompany.com). Lockable to signed-in internal users only.

  • Sign-in via Microsoft Entra, Google Workspace or other domain-bound SSO
  • Access limited to your organisation's internal users
  • A portal with an overview of company content in one place
Embedded search

A search icon right inside your website

Add the Contineo icon to your existing site. On click it expands as an overlay layer and replaces the site's regular search.

  • One line of code, no changes to your page content
  • Overlay in Contineo's design, fits light and dark sites
  • Ideal as a replacement for search on a public website

Try it: click the search icon in the sample page.
