Show HN: SQLite AI - Open-Source Extensions to Bring AI to SQLite, Everywhere

4•marcobambini•12h ago
We’re excited to share SQLite AI, an open-source project designed to turn SQLite into a powerful AI infrastructure layer for cross-platform, local-first applications.

Our vision is simple: to make SQLite the default database for AI at the edge, whether you're building mobile apps, IoT devices, desktop software, or even browser-based tools.

To do this, we've created a suite of modular SQLite extensions that can be used independently or combined to unlock powerful capabilities:

* SQLite-Vector: Efficient vector search directly in SQLite, with support for float32, float16, bfloat16, int8, and uint8 vectors.

* SQLite-AI: Integration with language models, providing AI-assisted queries, summarization, and generation inside the database.

* SQLite-JS: Seamlessly define and run JavaScript functions inside SQLite, perfect for local customization and edge scripting.

* SQLite-Sync: Lightweight local-first synchronization with cloud coordination, so your data stays in sync without giving up control.

Because everything is built on top of SQLite, you can use the same code across multiple languages and frameworks with minimal friction. Everything is cross-platform by design and tailored for both resource-constrained environments and full-scale deployments.

The entire project is open source, and we welcome feedback, contributions, and collaboration from the community. Whether you’re building AI-powered apps, tools for edge devices, or just love SQLite, we think you’ll find something exciting here.

We’d love to hear what you think!
