Reviewer scorecard
“Simplest vector DB to get started with. Serverless pricing means you only pay for what you use. Great for RAG.”
“Self-hostable, open source, and genuinely all-in-one. Replaces Amplitude + LaunchDarkly + Hotjar at a fraction of the cost.”
“Vendor lock-in with no self-hosting option. pgvector gives you vectors in your existing Postgres — simpler architecture.”
“The free tier is absurdly generous. Open source means you can audit exactly what data goes where.”
“Purpose-built vector databases will outperform bolted-on vector features as embedding workloads grow more complex.”
“PostHog is the open-source Amplitude. The all-in-one approach reduces tool sprawl and keeps data unified.”
