NextBrick

Enterprise Search Engine

NextSearch

The enterprise search engine, reimagined. Faster, leaner, open.

NextSearch delivers higher search throughput, lower latency, and better relevance than Elasticsearch, OpenSearch, and Solr — with enterprise-grade reliability, predictable commercial licensing, and AI-native retrieval built in.

A drop-in, AI-native replacement for Elasticsearch, OpenSearch, Solr, and Elastic Cloud for teams that need search that scales without the lock-in or the bill.

Operational workflow

From product surface to measurable outcome.

Each NextBricks product is built as a deployable platform component, not a loose demo. Teams can operate it standalone or wire it into the full Data AI Platform.

Step 1

Connect sources

Step 2

Index lexical + vector data

Step 3

Tune relevance

Step 4

Serve AI-ready retrieval

Product capabilities

Capability 1

Higher QPS, lower latency

3,174 QPS with a 39.41 ms p99 latency and 79,368 requests served on the same head-to-head benchmark hardware.

Capability 2

Lean memory footprint

Runs the same workload on 327 MiB RAM where Elasticsearch and OpenSearch need 900+ MiB — roughly a third of the memory.

Capability 3

AI-native retrieval

BGE-M3 embeddings and a ReAct agent layer bring hybrid lexical + vector search and RAG into the core engine.

Capability 4

Predictable licensing

A clear commercial license replaces per-node cloud metering and removes seat and consumption surprises.

Capability 5

Feature parity controls

The live NextSearch console exposes query parity, aggregation parity, alias routing, sharding, lifecycle, snapshot, alerting, anomaly detection, query insights, and workload management controls.

Capability 6

Agent builder

Operators can build reusable NextSearch skills and tools for search workflows, enrichment policies, evidence bundles, and confidence/citation policies.
