Cosdata

Cosdata is an open-source, high-performance search and retrieval engine designed for AI-native workloads. Our core strength lies in handling unstructured and semi-structured data at scale enabling fast, context-aware access to large, messy datasets. Think of it as an AI-native infrastructure layer, with deep support for versioning, real-time queries, and hybrid search. What We Do: We build next-generation retrieval infrastructure for AI applications that demand relevance beyond simple vector similarity. Our platform combines multi-modal search capabilities (BM25, HNSW dense vectors, SPLADE embeddings, metadata-rich sparse vectors) with enterprise-grade features to deliver retrieval systems that understand user intent and real-world complexity. Key Highlights: 60-120% reduction in compute requirements while improving retrieval quality by 20-50% Up to 20× higher query throughput than traditional search solutions Unified architecture with colocated storage no external databases needed Immutable, versioned architecture with time-travel capabilities Apache 2.0 licensed with complete source access Our Mission: At Cosdata, we're committed to pushing the boundaries of AI-driven data platforms. We empower businesses and researchers with tools that enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of their AI and machine learning projects. We optimize for user satisfaction, not just mathematical similarity incorporating multiple signals and contextual factors to surface truly useful results. Leadership: Led by founder Nithin Mani, Cosdata is driven by a passion for innovation in retrieval infrastructure. Our team collaborates closely with researchers to continually evolve our platform and explore new possibilities in AI-native data management.
