## What the story says

DISCO uses Pinecone as the vector database behind Cecilia Q&A, an AI fact-finding feature that lets legal professionals ask natural language questions over large case datasets. Pinecone supports fast vector search across new and older data, and DISCO is moving to Pinecone serverless to avoid pre-provisioning.
