Vectorize.io is a US-based software company that builds agentic and generative AI infrastructure, helping organizations in law, insurance, and finance make vast volumes of unstructured data usable by large language models. By integrating Elastic’s hybrid search and Elastic Cloud Serverless with Amazon Bedrock, Vectorize deploys production-ready AI solutions for clients in hours rather than weeks. One client whose developer community grew by a million users in a year relied on Vectorize’s real-time learning agent—built on Elasticsearch—to answer support queries and instantly index new answers for future use.
CustomGPT.ai built a RAG-as-a-Service platform on Pinecone storing over 400M vectors, achieving sub-20ms query latency and the #1 ranking in an independent RAG accuracy benchmark.
BambooHR built an AI-powered HR assistant using Cohere's Embed and Rerank models to answer employee questions accurately, saving HR teams thousands of hours while handling sensitive data securely.
Terminal X is a vertical AI platform for institutional investors that acts as a 24/7 research agent, processing millions of financial documents for hedge funds, asset managers, and private equity firms. By rebuilding its retrieval architecture on Pinecone’s vector database, Terminal X improved F1 retrieval accuracy from 0.68 to 0.91, cut average latency by over 35%, and doubled deployment velocity. Users now save approximately three hours per day, and investment memo preparation dropped from two days to half a day.
TaskUs is a leading outsourced digital services company providing next-generation customer experience (CX) for innovative global brands. To move beyond flat-file embedding storage and scaling limitations, TaskUs built TaskGPT—a proprietary GenAI platform—with Pinecone as the core vector database for semantic search, RAG-based knowledge retrieval, and client-specific recommendations. The result: a 20% reduction in average handle time and a 5% increase in customer satisfaction across client deployments.
Delphi is an AI platform that enables coaches, creators, and experts to deploy interactive “Digital Minds”—always-on conversational agents trained on their unique content. Scaling from proof of concept to a commercial platform with thousands of customers required a vector database that could support millions of isolated namespaces, billions of vectors, and sub-second retrieval under variable load. Delphi selected Pinecone, achieving P95 query latency of 100ms and keeping retrieval under 30% of total response time—freeing the engineering team to build product rather than manage infrastructure.
Gong is a revenue intelligence platform that analyzes billions of customer interactions to help sales teams improve performance. To power Smart Trackers—its patented AI system for detecting and classifying concepts in sales conversations—Gong adopted Pinecone as its core vector database, storing billions of sentence-level embeddings across real conversations. Migrating to Pinecone Serverless delivered a 10x reduction in infrastructure costs while sustaining peak search performance across a massive corpus.
Assembled is a workforce management and customer support optimization platform serving enterprises like Stripe, Etsy, and DoorDash. To power Assembled Assist, the company built a hybrid RAG pipeline combining Pinecone vector search with Algolia keyword retrieval and LLMs from OpenAI and Anthropic. Support tasks that previously took 40 minutes now complete in 2 minutes—a 95% reduction in handling time.
Notion, the connected workspace platform used by millions worldwide, integrated Cohere Rerank into its search pipeline to power Notion AI’s search accuracy across multilingual enterprise workspaces. Every search and Notion AI interaction now routes through Cohere Rerank, delivering dramatically improved relevance while cutting the cost and complexity of embedding-based retrieval for smaller workspaces.
Pure Storage, a Santa Clara-based enterprise data storage company, deployed Glean to unify knowledge access across Jira, GitHub, and internal wikis for teams spanning engineering, legal, and customer support. The AI-powered search platform cuts information-retrieval time by more than 30 minutes per search and enables employees to build custom GenAI applications in as little as 5 minutes, while boosting overall employee satisfaction scores by 39 points.
InpharmD's AI assistant, Sherlock, leverages Pinecone's vector database to deliver fast, accurate drug information to healthcare professionals. By embedding 30 million medical documents into a RAG pipeline, InpharmD achieved 70% better query accuracy, 95x faster first response times, and 80% cost savings on data storage.
1up, a sales knowledge automation platform, integrated Pinecone's vector database to power a RAG-based system that delivers real-time, highly accurate answers to complex sales queries.
