The managed vector database and knowledge engine for production AI
Store and query vector embeddings with automatic indexing that requires no manual tuning or algorithm selection.
Writes are acknowledged in under 100ms and become searchable within seconds, while all data is searched in parallel so speed holds at scale.
Connect agents to Pinecone through plugins for Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Codex, Gemini CLI, MCP, or a direct REST API with one key.
Serve compiled, governed enterprise knowledge to agents through a single query, cutting token usage and latency versus multi-step RAG loops.
The data, evaluations and systems behind AI that has to be right.
Human-sourced and expert-annotated training data, including specialist contributors with advanced degrees, at the quality bar frontier labs require.
Public leaderboards plus private benchmarks that test model capability and safety for the most ambitious AI developers.
Platform and services teams that pick the right use case, build the system and take ownership of the outcome.
Agentic systems designed around measurable business outcomes across private equity portfolios, energy and healthcare operations.
