Chroma provides open-source and managed cloud infrastructure for vector databases, search, embeddings, and ingestion workflows for AI applications. Its cloud offering includes hosted databases, managed sync from sources like GitHub/S3/web, and package-search tooling for AI agents.
Chroma exposes three documented HTTP APIs (Core, Sync, and Cloud Embeddings), one MCP server for Package Search, and a `chroma` CLI; the documented developer auth mechanism is a Chroma Cloud API key, usually sent as `x-chroma-token` and also usable as a bearer-style authorization token for the MCP server.
