Weaviate
Company Overview
As of September 3, 2026: Weaviate is an open-source vector database for developers that combines vector search, RAG, and memory in one platform, backed by $16M across two rounds.
The Free Forever tier gets a developer started at $0, with paid plans ranging up to $45/month on Flex and usage-based costs as granular as $0.025 per million tokens for Snowflake Arctic embeddings. SOC 2 Type II and HIPAA certifications mean regulated-industry buyers can clear procurement without a custom security review.

Self-serve, free tier
The Free Forever tier costs nothing, Flex runs $45/month, and both Premium tiers require a sales call, so a solo developer hits a pricing wall before seeing enterprise numbers. Storage on Flex costs $0.12/GiB versus $0.10/GiB on Premium Shared, meaning heavier workloads have a real incentive to move up. The Query Agent add-on is a flat $30/organization/month on top of any plan.

Hybrid search platform
28 stated capabilities cover hybrid search, multi-tenancy, and RAG, with 7 integrations listed. The breadth is self-reported; independent feature testing is not available here, so buyers should validate the specific capabilities they need against their own workloads.

Positioning
AI Vector Database
The homepage leads with "Design, build and ship complete AI experiences" and explicitly frames the product for developers. The secondary line, "Vector search, RAG, and memory - all in one open-source platform," tells a developer exactly what the product does without requiring them to read further.

Funding
$16M raised across 2 rounds
$16M raised across a Series A and a Series B, with the most recent round led by Index Ventures in April 2023. That round is now over two years old, so buyers evaluating long-term vendor stability should ask about runway and any subsequent financing.

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.
