Sequin moved into maintenance mode after the team was acquired by Notion: last commit 2026-02-23, last release v0.14.6 (2026-02-18), and sequinstream/sequin#2111 ("Update documentation to reflect maintenance mode", merged 2026-02-09) says so on the record. We should not be recommending it as a real-time sync path anymore, so drop the "Using Sequin" section. Airbyte remains the third-party sync tool the guide points to, alongside polling, change listeners and ORM hooks. Reported by a customer in T-5379.

### Using Sequinsection (46 lines) fromdocs-site/content/guide/syncing-data-into-typesense.md.Why
Sequin moved into maintenance mode after the team was acquired by Notion, so we should
not keep recommending it as the real-time Postgres → Typesense path:
sequinstream/sequin: 2026-02-23, zero commits in the ~5.5 months since.sequinstream/sequin#2111, "Update documentation to reflect maintenance mode", merged2026-02-09, body: "Removing some outdated documentation from the transition to
maintenance mode post-acquisition." The maintainers said it themselves; this is not
inferred from silence.
sequinstream/sequin#2153(sink hardcodesaction=emplace, so omitted fields persist inthe index) and
sequinstream/sequin#2146(sink fails on IPv6-only Fly.io.internalhosts).The repo is not archived and the README still reads as a normal active project, which is why
this keeps catching users out.
What readers get instead
The guide keeps every other sync strategy it already documented, polling on
updated_at,change listeners / CDC, ORM hooks, and Airbyte (which supports Postgres as a source and
Typesense as a destination). Airbyte is now the only third-party sync tool the guide points to.
Notes for review
## Sync real-time changes, which still hasUsing the APIandHigh-volume writes.[[toc]]is generated, so no manual table-of-contents edit is needed....syncing-data-into-typesense.html#using-sequinwill land at the top ofthe page after this ships. If we'd rather not break them, the alternative is a short
deprecation note in place of the section instead of a deletion, say the word and I'll swap it.
