What this product helps you do

Chroma is open-source data infrastructure for AI retrieval with Python and TypeScript clients plus a managed serverless service. It supports document and metadata storage, user-selected embedding models, dense and sparse vector search, hybrid ranking, full-text and regex search, filters, multimodal records, collection forking, and cloud or self-hosted deployment.

Problems it solves

  • AI applications need retrieval across documents, embeddings, and metadata
  • Vector-only search can miss lexical or filtered matches
  • Teams need a simple local development path that can move to managed infrastructure
  • Operating indexes and storage at growing scale requires specialized database work

Chroma is Apache-2.0-licensed search infrastructure for AI applications. It stores documents, embeddings, and metadata and supports dense and sparse vectors, hybrid search, keyword and regex matching, metadata filters, and multimodal retrieval.

Developers can run Chroma locally or on their own infrastructure, or use Chroma Cloud for managed serverless databases. Cloud pricing combines plan fees with metered writes, storage, queries, and network output, while team and enterprise tiers add support, capacity, and deployment controls.
