Maker reviews of Pinecone


Super simple to get started, documentation was amazing.


Though we are using function tools to retrieve information from our integrations in real-time, we also use Pinecone to retrieve relevant long-term information.


We used Pinecone for fast, scalable vector search to power NeuraVid’s AI-driven video retrieval. Unlike traditional databases, Pinecone is optimized for vector searches (ANN - Approximate Nearest Neighbor).
As NeuraVid processes huge volumes of video embeddings, Pinecone’s fully managed infrastructure scales automatically, handling billions of vectors efficiently & we don't have to worry about it.
