Egress metering and monthly egress allowances

Pinecone now meters egress, the data returned to you on reads. Each plan includes a monthly egress allowance: 1 GB on Starter, 10 GB on Builder, and 100 GB on Standard and Enterprise. Egress is metered on reads that return record data, such as query, fetch, list, and search. Writes, index statistics, and index management requests aren't metered.

General availability: Full-text search and the Documents API

Full-text search is now generally available on API version 2026-07, built on the new Documents API. Create schema-based document indexes that combine full-text (BM25), dense-vector, and sparse-vector ranking fields in a single index. Query them with BM25 token matching, Lucene query syntax, or vector similarity, narrowed by metadata and text-match filters.
