Qdrant, the company behind the eponymous open source vector database, has raised $28 million in a Series A round of funding led by Spark Capital. Founded in 2021, Berlin-based Qdrant is seeking to capitalize on the burgeoning AI revolution, targeting developers with an open source vector search engine and database — an integral part of generative AI, which requires relationships be drawn between unstructured data (e.g. text, images or audio that isn’t labelled or otherwise organized), even when that data is “dynamic” within real-time applications. “The plan was to go into the next fundraising in the second quarter this year, but we received an offer a few months earlier and decided to save some time and start scaling the company now,” Qdrant CEO and co-founder Andre Zayarni explained to TechCrunch.
