Pricing and conditions
Current terms unconfirmed
Free Cloud documents one node, 0.5 vCPU, 1GB RAM and 4GB disk. Standard is usage-based; Premium has a minimum spend; Hybrid/Private need quotes. No payable amount was readable. The Cloud Agreement invoices monthly but may collect usage charges earlier, uses EUR and/or USD per order, excludes taxes/payment fees and provides term/renewal rules separate from resource changes. Confirm order term, region, resources, backups, inference/embedding allowances and overage; OSS hardware and operations are separate.

Pricing or terms sourceCode, model and service licensing
The public database engine is Apache-2.0, with notice, change-marking and applicable patent conditions; that does not license embeddings, datasets or trademarks. Cloud/Hybrid software has separate time-limited order rights and resale/modification restrictions. Managed customers grant a term-limited service/support data license and remain responsible for upload rights. Account/security processing and termination retention are not zero retention; a general no-training guarantee was not established for every inference provider. Confirm the Cloud Order and DPA.
Basis and limits of the recorded score
The existing 4.7 score is retained; its original scoring evidence is unavailable. This documentation review did not measure performance or compare products and did not re-score it.
Overview
Qdrant stores vectors and optional payload metadata, with dense/sparse hybrid retrieval and indexed filters. It can underpin search, recommendation or RAG retrieval; it is not itself an answer-generation model. Indexes, embedding choices, shards and replicas affect resource needs and recall. Managed, Hybrid, Private and OSS deployment options assign different operational responsibilities. Free Cloud is a single-node prototype tier; it should not be mistaken for a redundant production contract.
