Neo4j — Infrastructure · Private · Late-stage · 3 of 3 figures sourced  |  Redis — Infrastructure · Private · Undisclosed · 1 of 1 figure sourced

Relationship

Overlaps on agent orchestration, data analysis and vector search; Redis's scale not recorded; ships API service, developer tool and 1 more rather than the same layer.

Assembled from the recorded fields for this pair, not hand-checked. The comparison below is read from each company’s own profile.

Document extractionKnowledge retrieval

Recorded for Neo4j. Redis’s product records say nothing either way — a missing record is not a missing capability.

Redis has no capability Neo4j lacks, among the 3 recorded here.

Products, side by side

Algorithmic pairing — assembled from recorded fields, not hand-checked

Neo4j

No shared stack layer with the other side.

Redis

No shared stack layer with the other side.

No counterpart

Neo4j sells these in a stack layer with no product recorded for Redis yet — nothing on the other side to compare them against.

Application

GraphAware HumeApplication

Graph-powered intelligence analysis platform for government and enterprise, connecting people, organizations, locations and events into a shared intelligence picture; positioned as an open-standard alternative to Palantir Gotham.

Neo4j LLM Knowledge Graph BuilderApplication

Neo4j LLM Knowledge Graph Builder uses machine-learning models to transform documents into knowledge graphs of entities and relationships.

Agent platform

Neo4j Aura AgentAgent platform

Low-code builder for agents grounded in a Neo4j knowledge graph, run as managed endpoints on Aura.

Platform

Neo4j Aura Graph AnalyticsPlatform

Serverless graph analytics on any data platform with no ETL: run graph algorithms on data from AuraDB or other sources, billed per GB-hour used.

Neo4j AuraDBPlatform

Fully managed Neo4j graph database in the cloud, with a vector index for GenAI and GraphRAG retrieval; Free, Professional, Business Critical and Virtual Dedicated Cloud tiers.

Neo4j Graph Data SciencePlatform

Graph analytics and machine-learning library for Neo4j: 65+ graph algorithms, node embeddings and graph-native ML pipelines for clustering, similarity and classification.

Redis sells these in a stack layer with no product recorded for Neo4j yet — nothing on the other side to compare them against.

API service

Redis Agent MemoryAPI service

A memory service for AI agents that keeps each conversation as ordered session events with automatic summarisation, extracts durable facts into long-term memory in the background, and retrieves them across sessions by semantic, keyword or hybrid search.

Redis Context RetrieverAPI service

A schema-first context layer that turns a modelled set of business entities, fields and relationships into generated retrieval tools agents call over MCP, so agents read live operational data through governed, row-filtered lookups rather than writing SQL.

Redis LangCacheAPI service

A semantic cache for LLM calls: before an app calls its model, LangCache embeds the prompt, looks for a semantically similar prompt already answered and returns the stored response, with configurable similarity thresholds, TTLs and eviction, through a REST API.

Redis SearchAPI service

Vector search and hybrid (vector + exact-match) query engine built into Redis, marketed as "the world's fastest vector database" for GenAI apps and RAG pipelines at billions-of-vectors scale.

Developer tool

Redis CopilotDeveloper tool

An AI assistant in Redis Insight and the Redis docs that answers questions about Redis commands and concepts and, connected to a user's own database, turns plain-language requests into Redis search queries over that data.

Infrastructure service

Redis IrisInfrastructure service

Redis's context engine for AI agents, bundling Context Retriever, Agent Memory, LangCache, Data Integration and Redis Search into one runtime that keeps agents supplied with live business data, memory and cached answers, managed on Redis Cloud or self-managed on Kubernetes.
