Retrieval-augmented generation (RAG)
The problem
General models cannot answer questions about your policies, contracts, tickets or product data, and guessing is worse than refusing.
What we implement
An ingestion and retrieval pipeline: document parsing, chunking strategy, embeddings, hybrid search, reranking, and generation constrained to retrieved context with citations.
How it works
Retrieval quality is measured separately from generation quality, so failures are attributed correctly. Access control is applied in the query so users only retrieve what they may read.
Expected outcome
Answers are grounded in sources users can open and check, and the system declines rather than inventing when evidence is missing.
Typical deliverables
- Ingestion pipeline with incremental re-indexing
- Chunking and embedding strategy with rationale
- Hybrid retrieval and reranking configuration
- Citation enforcement and refusal behavior
- Retrieval evaluation set and scoring harness
