Apache-2.0 license body confirmed under an OramaSearch Inc. copyright line, which is why the GitHub API reports NOASSERTION. The repository is public and unarchived and builds the whole engine, and the README describes no paid tier, enterprise edition or license-gated build beside it - Orama Cloud is a separately sold hosted service rather than a piece withheld from the published engine.

  LICENSE.md is the verbatim Apache-2.0 text under a copyright 2023 OramaSearch Inc. line, which is why the GitHub API reports NOASSERTION rather than Apache-2.0.

  downloads = 5,371,921 for @orama/orama over 2026-07-31 to 2026-08-29.

Banded on the category feature matrix as working single-purpose store or index, level with pgvector - it indexes and persists documents itself across several retrieval modes, but runs single-node with no built-in clustering or replication, so it does not reach the distributed, cluster-capable band above.

• https://github.com/oramasearch/orama/blob/main/README.md recorded 2026-09-02

  README documents a single-node, embeddable full-text, vector and hybrid search engine with its own document and index storage, and no distributed cluster mode.
