About Onyx
Onyx is an enterprise search platform that connects company data sources and supplies context to both people and AI agents. It syncs 50+ connectors, searches indexed sources in parallel, and enforces each source's own permissions at query time. It can be self-hosted in a customer's cloud, on bare metal, or fully air-gapped, and model providers can be swapped or routed per team. The homepage describes it as open source.
Pricing is not listed on the homepage, which offers a demo booking and a free trial instead. The site cites its own benchmark figures for EnterpriseRAG-Bench and reports 1M+ queries per week and 1,000+ teams; these are vendor-reported claims rather than independently verified numbers.
