RAG and Knowledge

RAG development that gives answers you can trust.

We turn your documents, tickets and wikis into an AI that answers questions with sources. Your team stops searching. Your customers get answers that match your docs, not a guess.

What is RAG?

RAG stands for retrieval augmented generation. Before the AI answers, it searches your own content and pulls the most relevant passages. The model then writes an answer from those passages and shows where each fact came from. This keeps answers current and grounded in your data.

Signs you are ready

Sounds familiar?

  • People ask the same questions in Slack every week.
  • Your knowledge lives in Notion, Drive, Confluence and old tickets.
  • Search returns ten documents when you wanted one answer.
  • A generic chatbot made things up about your product.

How we work

Our approach.

Every project runs on the Zap Sprint. A fixed price, a working prototype in about 14 days and a production launch in four to six weeks.

  1. 01

    Audit your content

    We list your sources, find gaps and agree what the AI should and should not know.

  2. 02

    Build the index

    We clean, split and embed your content. Permissions stay attached to every piece.

  3. 03

    Tune retrieval

    We test with real questions from your team until the right passage shows up first.

  4. 04

    Ship and measure

    We launch in Slack, your app or your site. We track which answers help and which miss.

FAQ

RAG and Knowledge FAQ

For most company knowledge, yes. RAG keeps answers current because it reads your latest docs at question time. Fine tuning changes how a model writes, not what it knows. Sometimes we combine both.

RAG greatly reduces this. The model answers only from retrieved passages and must cite them. If it cannot find an answer, it says so. We test this on real questions before launch.

Most sources work. Google Drive, SharePoint, Confluence, Notion, Zendesk, Intercom, websites, PDFs and databases. If it has an API or an export, we can usually index it.

No. We can host the vector database and the models inside your own AWS, Azure or Google Cloud account.

We build a test set of real questions with known good answers. We score retrieval and answers on every change. You see the scores in a dashboard.
