NucliaDB, the #1 RAG Database
NucliaDB is the open-source database behind Nuclia, and it is the first and only database designed specifically for Retrieval-Augmented Generation.
Vector databases are great at semantic similarity—but RAG requires more than “close enough.” True AI-powered knowledge systems demand context, relationships, traceability, and flexibility across formats. And that’s where other databases fall short.
They lack:
– Contextual linking between pieces of data
– No support for rich metadata and assets
– No understanding of relationships or hierarchies
– Limited to semantic proximity, not real-world meaning
Why NucliaDB Changes Everything
NucliaDB doesn’t just store vectors. It builds a living knowledge network—connecting unstructured data, structured content, and everything in between. It doesn’t return “matches”—it delivers answers. Actionable. Verifiable. Context-rich.
NucliaDB unifies:
✅ Semantic search
✅ Keyword search
✅ Metadata search
