# Roadmap

> The main features that we are currently working on

We're a lean team that likes to ship at [incredibly high velocity](https://github.com/paradedb/paradedb/releases). For features and improvements that have already shipped, see the [changelog](/docs/project/changelog/).

## In Progress

### Vector Search

* **[Native vector search](/docs/reference/vector/overview) (beta)**. The ParadeDB index natively indexes pgvector's `vector` type, addressing pgvector's limitations around filtered queries — specifically, queries that combine vector similarity with metadata filters or full-text search predicates.
* **Incremental index maintenance**. Vector search quality currently degrades as indexed rows are updated. We are implementing SPFresh to maintain index quality incrementally.
* **Remaining pgvector types**. Implement support for pgvector's `halfvec`, `sparsevec`, and `bit` types.

### JOIN Improvements

* **Join pushdown (beta)**. [Join pushdown](/docs/reference/joins/overview) pushes search predicates directly into the index for significantly better performance.
* **Smarter JOIN planning for search indexes**. Apply index-aware optimizations and cost estimation strategies when multiple ParadeDB-indexed tables are joined.

### Ecosystem Integrations

* **ORMs**. Official support for more ORMs, like Prisma and others, is coming. [Drizzle](https://github.com/paradedb/drizzle-paradedb), [Django](https://github.com/paradedb/django-paradedb), [SQLAlchemy](https://github.com/paradedb/sqlalchemy-paradedb), [Rails](https://github.com/paradedb/rails-paradedb), and [Entity Framework Core](https://github.com/paradedb/efcore-paradedb) are already available.
* **AI Frameworks**. Official support for LangChain, LlamaIndex, CrewAI, and others is coming.
* **PaaS Providers**. Official tutorials for hosting ParadeDB on more platform-as-a-service providers like Heroku and others are coming. [Railway](/docs/operate/deploy/cloud-platforms/railway), [Render](/docs/operate/deploy/cloud-platforms/render), [Fly.io](/docs/operate/deploy/cloud-platforms/fly), [DigitalOcean](/docs/operate/deploy/cloud-platforms/digitalocean), and [Dokku](/docs/operate/deploy/cloud-platforms/dokku) are already available.

### Managed Cloud

* Today, you can [deploy ParadeDB](/docs/operate/deploy/overview) self-hosted, on cloud platforms, or with ParadeDB BYOC. We're also building ParadeDB Cloud, a fully managed ParadeDB: first-class search from Postgres, with a developer experience to match. [Join the waitlist](https://www.paradedb.com/cloud) to get notified when it launches.

## Long Term

### Deeper Analytics Improvements

* **Push Postgres visibility rules into the index**. This is currently a filter applied post index scan that adds overhead to large scans.

## We're Hiring

We're tackling some of the hardest and (in our opinion) most impactful problems in Postgres. If you want to be a part of it,
