Intelligence as a primitive

Intelligence is built-in, not bolted on. Every layer of Raindrop has intelligence built in. No stitching together vector databases, RAG pipelines, or separate memory stores.

SmartMemory

Persistent Agent State

Enable AI agents to remember past conversations, learn from experience, and build knowledge over time through four specialized memory systems.

  • Working & episodic memory
  • Semantic & procedural memory
  • Session rehydration

SmartBuckets

Intelligent Storage

Upload any file type and instantly unlock semantic search, natural language querying, and intelligent insights with automatic vector embeddings.

  • Automatic vector embeddings
  • Semantic & keyword search
  • Graph based search

SmartSQL

Intelligent Database

Transform database interactions with natural language to SQL conversion, automatic PII detection, and schema intelligence for better queries.

  • Natural language to SQL
  • Automatic PII detection
  • Schema intelligence

SmartInference

AI Models

Unified interface for 60+ AI models. Text generation, image processing, speech recognition, and translation.

  • Multiple Models supported
  • Consistent API
  • Auto-scaling

Authentication

Built-in Security

Enterprise-grade authentication with JWT tokens, OAuth integration, and fine-grained access control for your APIs.

  • JWT & OAuth support
  • Role-based access control
  • API key management

Monetization

Built-in Billing

Integrated billing system with tiered pricing, usage tracking, and automatic payment processing for your APIs.

  • Tiered pricing plans
  • Usage-based billing
  • Automatic rate limiting per tier
  • Billing and payments handled

Real-World Application

RESTful API endpoints

Production-Ready From Day One

Built for AI agent workflows. Complete versioning, full observability, and agent-friendly architecture. Production infrastructure for real applications.

Complete Versioning

All components, code, data, and smart primitives are fully versioned. Experiment, iterate, and rollback with confidence. Safe AI agent workflows.

  • Complete versioning of code and data together
  • Instant rollback and rollforward
  • Safe experimentation for AI agents

Full Observability

Deep observability into every AI decision and data interaction. Know exactly what changed and why. Essential for production AI applications.

  • Every AI decision logged and traceable
  • Smart primitive operations fully visible
  • Debug and audit production systems

Built for AI Agents

Platform designed for AI agent workflows. Agents can annotate, understand, and modify systems safely. Infrastructure that speaks the language of agents.

  • Annotation system for agent context
  • Declarative auth and billing integration
  • Automatic scaling without configuration
