Build Multimodal AI Search Across Images, Text, Audio, and Video — All at Once
Keyword search only goes so far. When users need to search by photo, find a video clip, or retrieve medical images alongside clinical notes — you need multimodal search. Zilliz Cloud gives you a single vector database to power it all.
Multimodal AI Applications Powered by Zilliz Cloud
Build multimodal AI applications that understand, retrieve, and reason across text, images, audio, and more using Zilliz Cloud
Visual Product Search
Let users search by photo, screenshot, or text — and get results that match across all modalities. Ideal for e-commerce, fashion, and marketplace platforms.
Creative Asset Management
Search across millions of images, videos, design files, and documents using natural language or visual similarity. Streamline workflows for marketing, media, and creative teams.
Cross-Modal Document Search
Search radiology scans, pathology slides, and clinical notes in a single query. Help clinicians find relevant historical cases to validate diagnoses and speed up decisions at the point of care.
Audio & Music Search
Find similar audio clips, songs, or sound effects by acoustic features, mood, or textual description. Built for music platforms, podcast search, and audio libraries.
Video Surveillance Detection
Query hours of video footage using a text description or image reference. Locate people, objects, and events across distributed camera networks — in seconds, not hours.
Medical Image + Report Search
Match radiology scans, pathology slides, and clinical notes together — enabling cross-modal retrieval for diagnostics and research.
Multimodal AI Assistants
Build AI assistants that retrieve and reason across text, images, and structured data to deliver richer, more accurate answers.
Brand & Content Moderation
Detect brand logo misuse, identify similar copyrighted content, and flag policy violations across images, video, and text at scale.
Why Zilliz?
Why AI Teams Choose Zilliz Cloud?
With Zilliz Cloud, you can bridge the gap between text and visuals, searching across millions of media assets instantly — delivering precise cross-modal retrieval in real time at enterprise scale.
100K+QPS
Always fast, even under heavy multimodal load
Multimodal queries — image uploads, cross-modal retrieval, combined text and image search — are computationally intensive. Zilliz Cloud sustains 100K+ queries per second with stable p99 latency, so search stays fast no matter the load.
10B+Vectors
One system for every data type
A single video generates thousands of frame embeddings. A product catalog holds millions of SKU images. Zilliz Cloud handles 10B+ vectors without sharding or re-architecture — indexing text, images, audio, and video in one unified system.
-10xCost
Make multimodal AI affordable at scale
Cross-modal embeddings are large. Zilliz Cloud's vector quantization and tiered storage reduce infrastructure costs by up to 10x — so you can scale multimodal search without scaling your budget.
< 10msLatency
Instant results across every modality
Whether a user uploads a photo, types a description, or submits an audio clip, Zilliz Cloud returns semantically relevant matches in under 10ms — across billions of vectors, at any scale.
Multimodal similarity search
Store and retrieve embeddings from text, images, audio, video, 3D models, and more — enabling seamless cross-modal retrieval without building or maintaining separate pipelines.
Automatic and elastic scaling
Automatically scales compute and storage up or down as your traffic and data size changes — with no capacity planning, index rebuilding, or sharding ever required.
Native multi-tenant architecture
Built-in tenant isolation keeps AI workloads secure and prevents noisy-neighbor slowdowns — so millions of teams or apps can run reliably on the same platform.
Ease of use
Go from zero to production-ready vector search in minutes. Zilliz Cloud runs the infrastructure, handles scaling, and manages the Ops — so your team never has to.
Multi-cloud flexibility
Run on AWS, Azure, or GCP across 30+ regions worldwide, ensuring Zilliz Cloud's capabilities are always close to your users and within your infrastructure strategy.
Enterprise-grade reliability and compliance
99.95% SLA with SOC 2, ISO 27001, GDPR, and HIPAA compliance — plus regional failover and BYOC support for enterprise workloads.
