PostgreSQL AI extension for vector search, embeddings, ML inference, RAG pipelines, MCP server, and agentic AI runtime. Runs in-process with SQL functions.
CREATE EXTENSION neurondb;
One platform. SQL-first.
Vector, ML, and RAG primitives that run where your data lives.
Vector search
HNSW and IVF indexing with multiple distance metrics. Compatible with pgvector.
SELECT * FROM vector_search('embeddings', q, 10);ML inference
In-database inference and classical ML algorithms as SQL functions.
SELECT neurondb.ml.predict('model', features);RAG pipeline
Chunking, retrieval, reranking, and answer assembly as database steps.
SELECT neurondb.rag.query('docs', q, top_k => 5);PostgreSQL-native
Runs in-process as an extension. No sidecars required.
CREATE EXTENSION neurondb;Agent runtime
Tool execution and workflows via NeuronAgent for database AI apps.
pip install neuronagentMCP tools
Model Context Protocol server for tool access from Claude Desktop and other clients.
