turbopuffer's mission is to make every byte searchable.

Connecting AI with large amounts of fresh data means we're asking more from search than ever before. First-hand, we've seen companies limit product ambition by cost and operational toil of incumbents.

We've designed turbopuffer from first principles:

1. Scalability, by separating compute and storage
2. Cost, by moving data between NVMe and object storage
3. Reliability, through simplicity
4. Performance, with tpuf's custom tiered storage engine

Justin and I grew up at Shopify scaling the core from 1K to 1M RPS. Our drive for operational simplicity is shaped by years of being on the last-resort pager for a platform powering millions of $ per minute. We are channeling all the hard-won lessons of scale into making turbopuffer the most scalable and reliable search engine.

We host 1T+ documents, handle writes at 10M+ writes/s, and serve 10K+ queries/s. We are ready for far more. We hope you'll trust us with your workload.

We're backed by Lachy Groom Fund, as well as Arjun Narayan (Materialize), Erik Bernhardsson (Modal), Jessie Frazelle (Zoo & Oxide), Kenneth Auchenberg, Mikey Shulman (Suno), Richard Artoul (WarpStream), Solmaz Shahalizadeh (Shopify), Sualeh Asif (Cursor), and others. And most importantly, our team.
