This is a common feature now. If anything, for being so early to vector databases, Pinecone was rather late to integrating embeddings.

Timescale most recently added it but, yes a bunch of others: Weaviate, Spice AI, Marqo, etc.

A difference between Pinecone and many of the others you listed is that we host both embedding and reranking models in a serverless fashion. You pay for what you use while we manage the entire stack.
Do any of the others also handle reranking?
Qdrant does with its ‘Query API’.

And handles embedding creation with its fastembed package.

I don't know about them, but Manticore does.
