What problem does it solve?
LlamaIndex helps you turn private and heterogeneous documents into a retrieval-augmented question-answering system, so you can ask accurate questions and produce grounded answers without manual indexing or glue code.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Document ingestion (300+ connectors): Load files, web pages, GitHub repos, and many enterprise sources, then normalize them into a unified document format.
- Indexing and retrieval: Create vector (and other) indices, persist them to storage, and retrieve relevant chunks with similarity search and metadata filtering.
- Query engines and agents: Support chat and query patterns (including streaming), wrap query engines as tools, and enable RAG-capable agents for multi-step workflows.
- Multimodal and structured outputs: Handle image+text inputs for multimodal RAG and produce structured responses using Pydantic output parsers.
Quick Start
Ask an AI: Build a 5-line RAG pipeline using LlamaIndex to load documents from a local folder, create a vector index, and query it with a question.
