Integrates with (7)

LangChainPipelines & RAG

LangChain has a native Qdrant vectorstore integration — pass a Qdrant client and it handles embedding storage and similarity search.

Semantic retrieval inside any LangChain chain or agent without writing custom retrieval code.

Compare →
LlamaIndexPipelines & RAG

LlamaIndex stores and retrieves document embeddings from Qdrant via its QdrantVectorStore adapter inside a VectorStoreIndex.

Production-grade semantic retrieval with Qdrant's filtered search and payload metadata inside LlamaIndex pipelines.

Compare →
HaystackPipelines & RAG

Haystack has a native Qdrant document store integration — Qdrant becomes a retrieval backend in Haystack pipelines.

Production-grade vector retrieval inside Haystack pipelines using Qdrant's filtered search and payload storage.

Compare →
DifyPipelines & RAG

Dify connects to a self-hosted Qdrant instance as its knowledge base vector store — documents are chunked, embedded, and stored in Qdrant.

Self-hosted knowledge retrieval inside Dify workflows, keeping document data on your own infrastructure.

Compare →
Vercel AI SDKLLM Infrastructure

Apps built with the Vercel AI SDK call Qdrant directly for retrieval in RAG endpoints, fetching context before passing it to the SDK's generate function.

Semantic retrieval in Vercel AI SDK streaming endpoints — context from Qdrant enriches every generation without breaking streaming.

Compare →
Mem0Memory & Persistence

Mem0 supports Qdrant as a vector store backend for memory embeddings, alongside Chroma, Pinecone, pgvector, and others.

Run Mem0 on Qdrant when you want a managed or self-hosted vector backend with metadata filtering.

Compare →
LightRAGPipelines & RAG

LightRAG supports Qdrant as a vector backend for the embedding side of its hybrid graph-plus-vector index.

Run LightRAG's graph-RAG pipeline on Qdrant for the vector layer.
