SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Retrieve-Augmented Generation (RAG) systems enable LLMs to ground their answers in external knowledge sources, reducing hallucinations and increasing factual reliability.

Core Features & Use Cases

Vector databases and embeddings for scalable knowledge grounding across documents and knowledge bases.
Retrieval strategies and reranking to improve answer relevance and ensure citations.
Use cases include document Q&A, knowledge-grounded assistants, and domain-specific information retrieval.

Quick Start

Load your document corpus, configure embeddings and a vector store, and run a QA chain that returns grounded answers with citations.

FAQPage Schema

How do I ground LLM responses in external knowledge to stop hallucinations?▼

To ground LLM responses and stop hallucinations, use retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) to fetch context from external knowledge sources before generating answers. This grounds outputs in factual data, increasing reliability for document Q&A and knowledge bases.

What is retrieval-augmented generation and when do I need it for my documents?▼

Retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) connects vector databases and embedding models to large language models. You need it for building document Q&A systems, knowledge bases, and domain-specific information retrieval across proprietary documents.

How do I build a RAG pipeline that ensures answer relevance and citations?▼

Build a RAG pipeline by loading a document corpus, configuring embeddings and a vector store, then applying retrieval strategies and reranking. This mechanism improves answer relevance and produces grounded, citeable outputs from the LLM.

What's the best way to scale semantic search across a large document corpus?▼

The best way to scale semantic search across a large document corpus is integrating vector databases with embedding models. This combination enables scalable knowledge grounding and dynamic retrieval for your RAG architecture.

Do I need vector databases and embedding models for dynamic retrieval over proprietary documents?▼

Yes, you need vector databases and embedding models for dynamic retrieval over proprietary documents. They are required integrations for creating a knowledge-grounded assistant that can perform domain-specific information retrieval.
