The Pinecone Vector Database
Storing and searching through AI representations of your data lets you build search apps that “get it” and chatbots that answer right. Without exposing your data or fine-tuning models.
What is a vector databaseHigh Performance
Build fast, accurate applications powered by Pinecone's proprietary algorithms and indexes optimized for throughput.
Real-time queries
Support for ultra-low query latencies even across billions of vectors.
Fresh, relevant results
Get relevant results with live index updates, filters, and hybrid search support.
Introducing support for sparse-dense embeddings for better search results
Our index now supports sparse-dense embeddings regardless of the model used, data type they represent, or data distribution. More ways to build means engineers can focus more on building great search applications.
