/ 100
Established

Combines graph, vector, and relational data models in a single platform with built-in MCP tool support and native embedding functions, eliminating the need for separate specialized databases. Uses LMDB as its storage engine and enforces type-safe queries through HelixQL, a compiled query language deployed as API endpoints. Provides SDKs for TypeScript and Python, targeting AI applications, RAG systems, and agent architectures that traditionally require multiple database layers.
