  • 💡 The real question isn’t “build or buy.” It’s: What’s the cost of building? In our latest article, we uncover the hidden cost of building AI infrastructure yourself: ⏰ 6–12 months in development before users see value 👩💻 1+ full-time engineer just to maintain it (≈$200K/year) ⌛ Lost time building infrastructure instead of improving the product 🤕 And the biggest risk of all: success — because that’s when the system starts to break This isn’t just Aquant’s story. It’s the reality for every team moving from AI prototype to production. 🔗 Read: https://lnkd.in/gW7Ti3cZ

    What happens when you combine AI assistants with coffee? 𝐇𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐏𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐦𝐮𝐠! 𝐓𝐇𝐀𝐍𝐊𝐒 Pinecone! Last month for our local Code & Coffee meetup, I led a workshop on building AI assistants with Pinecone’s REST API and Python SDK. I’m a member of Pinecone’s Pioneers, a program that recognizes builders and educators in their community, and this is one of the awesome ways they show their support! Thank you Jocelyn Z. Matthews, Aaron Kao, Jenna Pederson, Arjun Patel and the rest of the Pinecone team! If you’re building with Pinecone and want to get more involved in the community, check out the Pinecone Pioneers! https://lnkd.in/eREhYXw5

    Friday Show & Tell: Building a RAG upload agent in n8n for podcast transcripts (ft. Pinecone + Google Sheets) Several weeks ago, I shared my Replit RAG pipeline for processing URLs and web content. Aaron Kao, VP of Marketing at Pinecone, included it in his roundup of cool projects (link in comments 🙏). This week: A totally different approach for a different data type. The challenge: A client needed to process podcast transcripts stored as Google Docs, not web URLs. Each transcript needed to be chunked, embedded, and stored in Pinecone, along with associated episode metadata, for later retrieval by another agent. What I built: ✅ Automated Google Drive → Google Sheets → Pinecone pipeline ✅ Smart chunking with episode names, URLs, and metadata preservation ✅ Duplicate prevention (only embeds new transcripts to save API costs) ✅ Web scraping component that auto-finds episode URLs from titles ✅ Feeds into a social media agent that recommends relevant episodes (complete with the URL) Why n8n vs Replit this time? Client handoff. I needed something more maintainable for someone else to manage. n8n workflows are more modular, making them easier to troubleshoot without diving into code. The full system: This RAG component connects to agents that monitor social conversations, identify relevant topics, and auto-generate branded responses with episode recommendations. If you're building with RAG, the beauty is in the flexibility — same core concepts (chunk → embed → store → retrieve), totally different tools and data types depending on the use case. What are you building this week?

  • Make knowledge hidden in your Google Docs discoverable and actionable. This post by John Ward, a Solutions Engineer here at Pinecone, shows how to load Google Docs into Pinecone Assistant, then ask natural-language questions and quickly surface answers across your notes, PRDs, design specs, and whatever else you store in Docs.
