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.

Fully managed Vector Lakebase and vector database for enterprise AI, built by the creators of Milvus
A managed Milvus service handling provisioning, scaling, reliability, and upgrades so teams focus on AI applications rather than cluster operations.
Engineered for 100B+ entities and 10K+ QPS with consistent, predictable latency across tiered performance and storage configurations.
Combine vector search with BM25 full-text, JSON, and geospatial queries, plus filtering and reranking for expressive multimodal retrieval.
Unlimited namespaces for multi-tenant AI apps, plus multi-region deployment with replication and failover for low-latency global access.
