What problem does it solve?
Pinecone helps teams build production-grade vector search and retrieval systems without managing database infrastructure, making it easier to ship RAG, semantic search, and recommendation features at scale.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Managed Vector Storage: Use serverless or pod-based deployments depending on whether you need elastic scaling or consistent performance.
- Hybrid Retrieval: Combine dense and sparse vectors for stronger semantic and keyword matching.
- Filtering and Isolation: Organize data with namespaces and metadata filters for multi-tenant apps, per-user retrieval, and targeted searches.
- Use Case: A team can store document embeddings, filter by product line or access level, and query the right context for an AI assistant in milliseconds.
Quick Start
