+**The ultimate multimodal data platform for AI/ML applications.**
+
+LanceDB is designed for fast, scalable, and production-ready vector search. It is built on top of the Lance columnar format. You can store, index, and search over petabytes of multimodal data and vectors with ease.
+LanceDB is a central location where developers can build, train and analyze their AI workloads.
