FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Pinecone is best for managed, production-ready solutions. Weaviate offers open-source flexibility. pgvector works well if you're already using PostgreSQL. We recommend based on your requirements.
We use OpenAI's embeddings API, sentence-transformers, or other embedding models. We choose models based on your data type and language. Embeddings are generated during indexing and stored in the vector database.
Yes. We can self-host Weaviate, Qdrant, or use pgvector with PostgreSQL. Self-hosting offers more control but requires infrastructure management. Managed services like Pinecone simplify operations.

Delivery considerations for your region
Compliance & Data (UK/EU)
For UK teams, we default to GDPR-first thinking: data minimisation, purpose-limited storage, and clear access boundaries.
We can work under a DPA (template available on request) and implement practical retention/deletion flows when needed.
- GDPR-first patterns (minimise, restrict, document)
- DPA template available on request
- Retention/deletion and export flows where required
- Least-privilege access and secure session handling
- PII-safe logging + secure-by-default configuration
- NDA available for early-stage discussions
Timezone & Collaboration (UK/EU)
We align to UK time and EU overlap (GMT/BST with CET-friendly windows) for fast feedback cycles.
We keep the process lightweight: async updates, clear priorities, and written decisions to avoid ambiguity.
- UK/EU overlap with GMT/BST windows
- Async-first delivery with documented scope
- Weekly milestones and structured demos
- Clear escalation path for blockers
- Tight change control with clear sign-offs
Engagement & Procurement (UK)
We support typical UK procurement flows with clear scopes, change control, and invoice cadence.
If you prefer a discovery-first engagement, we can run a short paid discovery to lock requirements before build.
- GBP-based engagements and invoicing options
- Discovery-first option to reduce delivery risk
- Milestone-based billing when appropriate
- Transparent change control and sign-offs
- Vendor onboarding pack on request
Security & Quality (UK/EU)
We build for reliability and maintainability: clean PRs, tight review loops, and test coverage that matches risk.
Performance budgets and release checklists keep launches predictable—especially when multiple stakeholders review changes.
- CI-friendly testing: unit + integration + smoke tests
- Performance budgets + bundle checks (Core Web Vitals-minded)
- Structured release notes and rollback-safe deployments
- Security checklist for auth, roles, and data flows
- Observability hooks (logs + error tracking) ready for production
