RAG breaks down without unified, real-time data
Fragmented RAG pipelines force developers to manage multiple search engines, connectors, and model APIs. Models are grounded in incomplete or outdated data, leading to hallucinations, inconsistencies, and production risks.
Build data-grounded AI faster
Deliver accurate, context-rich results by combining SQL federation, hybrid search, and LLM inference in one governed runtime.
Federate structured data
Query operational and analytical data across databases, object stores, and APIs using standard SQL. All in real time with zero ETL.
Search and embed unstructured data
Create embeddings from text, documents, or logs using local or hosted models. Run vector similarity search directly inside Spice to find relevant context, semantic matches, and related insights instantly.
Retrieve and augment intelligently
Blend structured SQL results and semantic search results in one query using hybrid search. Deliver precise, context-rich data to your LLMs without manual data engineering or pipeline maintenance.
Generate insights with the AI Gateway
Invoke and run models like OpenAI, Anthropic, or local LLMs directly in SQL queries. Feed retrieved context into the model and generate accurate, compliant, and contextual results within the same SQL workflow.
Why choose Spice for RAG
Spice unifies data retrieval, semantic search, and AI generation in a single, high-performance runtime—no pipelines, no orchestration, no drift.
Real-Time Federation
Query all your sources with federated SQL. No data movement or batch syncs.
Built-in Vector Search
Embed and retrieve semantic context alongside SQL filters and full-text search.
SQL LLM Inference
Call, prompt, and evaluate models in SQL via the AI() SQL function
Hybrid Ranking
Blend multiple result sets with Reciprocal Rank Fusion for per-query weighting and tunable relevance.
Governed & Secure
Enterprise-grade access control ensures compliance and auditability.
Deployment Flexibility
Run Spice anywhere: as a sidecar, microservice, cluster, or on the managed Spice Cloud Platform.
Trusted by teams building intelligent applications
Run data-intensive workloads on a high-performance engine trusted by teams building real-time systems at scale.
"Partnering with Spice AI has transformed how NRC Health delivers AI-driven insights. By unifying siloed data across systems, we accelerated AI feature development, reducing time-to-market from months to weeks - and sometimes days. With predictable costs and faster innovation, Spice isn't just solving some of our data and AI challenges - it’s helping us redefine personalized healthcare.”

Hybrid Search Docs
Spice provides robust search capabilities enabling developers to query datasets beyond traditional SQL, including semantic (vector-based) search, full-text keyword search, and hybrid search methods.
True Hybrid Search: Vector, Full-Text, and SQL in One Runtime
TL;DR Show Me the (Data)! It’s well established (and maybe even trite) to say that enterprises are going all-in on artificial intelligence, with more than $40 billion directed toward generative AI projects in recent years. The initial results have been underwhelming. A recent study from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology’s NANDA initiative concluded that despite the enormous allocation of […]
Real-Time Hybrid Search Using RRF: A Hands-On Guide with Spice
Surfacing relevant answers to searches across datasets has historically meant navigating significant tradeoffs. Keyword (or lexical) search is fast, cheap, and commoditized, but limited by the constraints of exact matching. Vector (or semantic) search captures nuance and intent, but can be slower, harder to debug, and expensive to run at scale. Combining both usually entails standing up multiple engines […]
