What it is

Our note

Weaviate's Query Agent turns natural language into database operations, which is context routing in its own right rather than retrieval alone, and hosted Weaviate Embeddings make it a full managed context layer rather than a bare vector store. Pricing is transparent and self-serve, a deliberate contrast with the enterprise quote-only vendors.
