Company Overview

As of September 3, 2026: Chroma is an open-source vector and hybrid search infrastructure for developers, with a free tier and usage-based pricing that scales to enterprise.

The Team plan runs $250/month, storage costs $0.33 per GiB-month, and writes run $2.50 per GiB written, so workloads with heavy write volume will feel the meter quickly. Chroma holds SOC 2 Type II and reported 100% uptime over the last 90 days on a public status page, which gives enterprise procurement something concrete to work with.

Self-serve, free tier
The Starter tier is free, Team is $250/month, and Enterprise is contact-sales, but the usage charges ($0.33/GiB-month storage, $2.50/GiB written, $0.09/GiB returned) mean a read-heavy or write-heavy workload can outrun the base fee fast, model your actual data volumes before committing.

Features
Hybrid search platform
22 stated capabilities covering vector, full-text, regex, and metadata search, plus 12 integrations; a developer building a hybrid retrieval pipeline has meaningful surface area to work with without leaving the platform.

Security
Compliance-ready
SOC 2 Type II is in hand alongside 6 controls including encryption at rest, encryption in transit, and MFA; that combination typically satisfies the baseline security review at mid-market and larger enterprise buyers.

Reliability
Dependable
100% uptime over the trailing 90 days is reported on a public status page, which is independently observable, that is a stronger data point than a stated SLA alone, though 90 days is a short window.

Hiring
6 open roles
6 open roles span design, engineering, and sales; the sales hiring suggests a push toward enterprise revenue, but the small headcount means product and support bandwidth are still limited.

Stack
Modern web stack
The live site runs on Next.js, React, Google Analytics, and Google Tag Manager, with additional detected technologies; nothing here is unusual or a concern for a buyer, but it confirms a standard modern web front end rather than anything proprietary.

Positioning
Search Infrastructure
The homepage leads with "Open-source search infrastructure for AI" and calls out Apache 2.0 licensing and "millions of developers", the open-source license means you can self-host and avoid vendor lock-in entirely, which is a real option worth pricing against the managed tiers.

Funding
$18M raised across 2 rounds
An $18M Seed round closed in April 2023, led by Astasia Myers; no subsequent round is on record, so buyers should factor in that the company is operating on a 2023 capital base in a capital-intensive infrastructure category.

How Bixel reads this

Every read above is derived from public signals, each sourced and dated, and kept honest about provenance: what the company states on its own pages and job posts (pricing, security, careers, positioning, its backend stack) versus what Bixel independently detects (technologies, infrastructure). Where a stated claim is also detected we mark it verified; where we only have the claim, we say so. Bixel infers posture: how it monetizes, how mature it is, where it's heading. It does notclaim private financials it can't observe. Where signals are thin, the record says so.

Public record, read from companies' own pages and boards. Every fact dated and sourced; provenance (observed vs company stated) shown inline.
