- 20+ model providers, all under one singular unified interface
- 10+ vector store integrations, all under one singular unified interface
- Full support for LLM completion and embedding workflows
- Support for transcription, audio generation and image generation model capabilities
- Integrate LLMs in your app with minimal boilerplate
- Full WASM compatibility (core library only)

## Who is using Rig?
Below is a non-exhaustive list of companies and people who are using Rig:
- [St Jude](https://www.stjude.org/) - Using Rig for a chatbot utility as part of [`proteinpaint`](https://github.com/stjude/proteinpaint), a genomics visualisation tool.
- [Coral Protocol](https://www.coralprotocol.org/) - Using Rig extensively, both internally as well as part of the [Coral Rust SDK.](https://github.com/Coral-Protocol/coral-rs)
- [VT Code](https://github.com/vinhnx/vtcode) - VT Code is a Rust-based terminal coding agent with semantic code intelligence via Tree-sitter and ast-grep. VT Code uses `rig` for simplifying LLM calls and implementing the model picker.
