Chroma is the open-source AI application database. Batteries included.
Chroma makes it easy to build LLM apps by making knowledge, facts, and skills pluggable for LLMs.
Embeddings, vector search, document storage, full-text search, metadata filtering, and multi-modal. All in one place. Retrieval that just works. As it should be.
Chroma gives you everything you need for retrieval:
Store embeddings and their metadata
Vector search
Full-text search
Document storage
Metadata filtering
Multi-modal retrieval
Chroma runs as a server and provides Python and JavaScript/TypeScript client SDKs. Check out the Colab demo (yes, it can run in a Jupyter notebook).
