What it runs on, and what runs on it

17 cited edges
The differentiator

Computed from the stack graph, both directions. Every cited edge links the page it was read from; a vendor-added one links the vendor’s own source — this is the reason to be here rather than on the vendor’s own site.

A HOLLOW RING IS UNMEASURED, NOT ZERO · WE DO NOT SUBSTITUTE A PARENT COMPANY’S REPOSITORY FOR A PRODUCT THAT HAS NONE

Price

We hold no price for this product.

The seller publishes a pricing page, linked above, but we read no rate from it. Either it quotes by sales call rather than in public, or the last reading passed 21 days and was hidden rather than shown stale. If that changes — or if you publish /.well-known/pricing.json — it appears here with a capture date.

Nobody has written one yet.

A review here is structured, not a star: hardware, scale band, what broke in production, and whether you would choose it again.

Frequently asked

Is LanceDB open source?
Yes — it is listed as open source, and its repository is the source for the activity figures on this page rather than anything the project says about itself.
What does LanceDB run on?
Cohere, Google DeepMind, OpenAI. Every one of those is an edge we recorded from documentation that states it, not an inference from what the two products have in common.
Does LanceDB offer hybrid search?
Yes. Read from their own page: “Unified vector, full-text, and hybrid search with SQL filters for production-ready retrieval”.
Does LanceDB offer reranking?
Yes. Read from their own page: “Use AnswerDotAI's lightweight reranking library with LanceDB. Features unified API for common reranking models, configurable model selection, and comprehensive scoring options.”.
What does a blank mean on the LanceDB page?
That nobody has told us, not that the answer is no. A hollow ring is "no answer on record", which is a different state from a recorded no — and the two look different on purpose. A blank is an absence of evidence, and this page shows how many of its questions are in that state rather than quietly leaving them out.
Where do the LanceDB figures come from?
Each one is read from a public page — usually the vendor's own documentation or pricing page — and carries a link to it with the date it was read. Nothing here is estimated, averaged across sources, or inferred from a similar product. If a figure cannot be traced to a page, it is not published.
Can LanceDB change what this page says?
They can claim the listing and supply or correct values, which are then labelled as theirs. They cannot remove the page, hide a comparison they are losing, or change a figure somebody else recorded with a source. Nothing on the page is for sale. How the site is paid for is set out under money and independence at /our-data#sec5.
Something here is wrong — how do I fix it?
Dispute the value. Every figure links to the page it was read from, so a dispute names the value and gives a source that contradicts it. That is the only lever anyone has over this page, and it is the same lever for the vendor, a competitor and a reader.
Is this listing run by LanceDB?
No. It is built from public sources, and no value on it came from the company. Anyone with an address at lancedb.com can claim it for free. A claim lets the company write the tagline, description and logo, and answer blank questions or add dependencies, each marked as theirs with a source. Prices, licence and OSS figures stay as the directory read them, category changes only through our review, and each can be disputed with a source.

Cite this page

A model that quotes us should quote us correctly. The reading and its date sit inside the citation rather than beside it, because a quotation carrying only a URL goes wrong the week the URL changes.

What LanceDB can and cannot change here

Claiming LanceDB lets its admins and editors change the tagline, description, logo, docs link and deployment model of every product that org owns — live, labelled as theirs, and logged. Answers to blank questions and dependencies go live too, marked as the owner’s and sourced; a documented answer cannot be overwritten. Everything else on this page is a stated fact with a dispute route: price, licence and OSS figures. Those columns are ungranted at the database level, so they are not a feature we withheld — they are a write that cannot happen. Name, category, website, pricing page and package names can be changed by the owner only through our review. A dispute never deletes a value; it marks it and publishes the correction.
