Airweave

What it does

Airweave is an AI retrieval infrastructure service for developers and teams building agents, retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) systems, and AI applications. Users create a searchable collection, connect apps or databases with credentials, and let Airweave sync their data. An agent or application then searches the collection in natural language through an SDK or API and receives relevant results from connected sources. The service offers semantic, keyword, hybrid, time-aware, and agentic search.

Airweave can be used through its hosted cloud platform or self-hosted; the documented local deployment targets macOS, Linux, or WSL. Python and Node.js SDKs are documented, with an API key needed for client access. Its published Developer plan is free and includes monthly query and synced-entity limits; paid plans add capacity and team members. Consider the plan’s connection, query, entity, and team limits, and that source connections require appropriate credentials. The site also describes on-prem deployment as an Enterprise option.

What it can do

• Create searchable collections of connected data sources
• Connect apps, documents, databases, and data warehouses through prebuilt connectors
• Sync connected-source data
• Search across sources using semantic, keyword, hybrid, time-aware, and agentic methods
• Return relevant search results through a unified interface
• Integrate with LangChain, Composio, Pipedream, or a custom agent stack

Works with

• LangChain
• Composio
• Pipedream
• Python
• Node.js

Before you choose

• Connected sources require authentication credentials; availability depends on the supported connectors.
• Published plans have limits on source connections, monthly queries, synced entities, and team members.
• Self-hosting requires deploying and operating the service; the quickstart documents local setup rather than all possible deployment environments.

Get started

The site links to the hosted app sign-up; API use requires an API key.

1. Choose the hosted cloud platform or deploy locally using the documented repository instructions.
2. Install the Python or Node.js SDK and create an API key from the Airweave dashboard.
3. Create a collection, add a source connection with its credentials, and search the collection.

Developer includes ten connections, 50 queries/month and 50K synced entities/month. Pro has 50 connections, 500 queries, 100K entities and two members; Startup has 1,000 connections, 5K queries, 1M entities and ten members. Monthly prices are displayed as $20/$299, versus yearly monthly equivalents $16/$239. Enterprise is quoted; self-hosting carries operating costs.
