Deshraj Yadav · Co-founder & CTO · Mem0

Deshraj Yadav · Co-founder & CTO · Mem0

Fei Teng · Senior Engineering Manager, Search Platform · Atlassian

Fei Teng · Senior Engineering Manager, Search Platform · Atlassian

Justin Watts · Distinguished Engineer · TELUS

Justin Watts · Distinguished Engineer · TELUS

Bennett Amodio · Engineer · Pylon

“turbopuffer is very well-loved at Pylon. I can't think of anybody who has worked with turbopuffer who has not had a really top tier experience.”

Bennett Amodio · Engineer · Pylon

Ivan Zhao · CEO · Notion

“turbopuffer's economics have changed the way we think about building products that connect data to LLMs.”

Akshay Kothari · Co-founder · Notion

“The biggest win for us with turbopuffer was flat p95 and p99. In general, tpuf has just been a lot more reliable than the Postgres solution.”

Peter Travers · Software Engineer · Linear

“We love working with turbopuffer. I've never felt sold to and I've always felt I know exactly what I'm buying. Which when you're buying critical infrastructure is absolutely crucial.”

Peter Travers · Software Engineer · Linear

“It's been fun to work with @turbopuffer on this. Admittedly, keyword-based search never really worked great for issues, and the results from embedding+FTS are now actually useful. We'll also use this new infrastructure to power more of Linear's AI functionality”

Jori Lallo · Co-founder · Linear

“Their responsiveness and shipping velocity make us feel like we are their only customer.”

Tom Moor · Head of Engineering · Linear

“We still have very skewed namespace sizes, but even on the largest matters we just don't observe the tail latency spikes on turbopuffer.”

Joachim Koch · Engineering Manager · Legora

“turbopuffer was the only search database where we could get the combination of high security, high recall, and low latency.”

Joachim Koch · Engineering Manager · Legora

“fal already operates at a huge scale. We chose turbopuffer because they serve many companies not only at our current scale, but where we plan to be in the future.”

Rehan Sheikh · Engineer · fal

“Before turbopuffer, it was basically impossible to search media generations. Now a user or their agent can type a query or upload an image and very quickly find the reference image they need.”

Noah Solomon · Engineer · fal
