Capability 04 — Knowledge (RAG)

AI that reads your documents. Answers with sources.

A model alone only knows what it was trained on — public data frozen in time. RAG connects it to your documents, your policies, your knowledge base. Every answer comes with a source you can verify.

Overview

What is RAG?

Retrieval-Augmented Generation grounds AI responses in your documents. When someone asks a question, the system:

Step 01

Search

Searches your document library for relevant passages.

Step 02

Retrieve

Retrieves the most relevant ones.

Step 03

Context

Passes them to the model as context.

Step 04

Answer

The model answers based on what it just read — with citations.

The model becomes an expert on your organization, updated instantly as you add documents. No retraining. No fine-tuning. Just connect and ask.

Example

Before and after.

What's our policy on remote work for employees outside Puerto Rico?

Without RAG

“Remote work policies vary by company and jurisdiction. Generally, companies allow remote work with manager approval and may require employees to be in the same country for tax purposes. You should consult your HR department for specific policies.”

With RAG

“Per the Remote Work Policy (revised March 2026, section 3.1): employees outside Puerto Rico may work remotely if their jurisdiction has a tax treaty with the US. Currently approved jurisdictions: Panama, Dominican Republic, Costa Rica. All requests require VP approval. See the full policy here: [link].”

Architecture

Agentic RAG — what we deploy for production.

For enterprise workloads, a simple "search-then-answer" pipeline rarely holds up. We deploy Agentic RAG: multiple specialized agents that validate each other's work.

AgentRole
RetrieverDecomposes the query, performs iterative search
CriticValidates faithfulness, checks for hallucinations
ComplianceEnforces regulatory boundaries and access controls
FormatterAligns output with enterprise standards

If evidence is insufficient, the system searches again. If the answer is unreliable, it says so. That is the standard we hold production systems to.

Applications

Use cases by department.

Legal

Search contracts, regulations, case law, internal policies.

Finance

Query financial reports, forecasts, compliance documents.

Operations

Access SOPs, maintenance logs, equipment specs.

Human Resources

Search benefits policies, onboarding docs, compliance training.

Sales & Marketing

Query product specs, pricing history, competitor intelligence, past proposals.

Customer Service

Search knowledge base, troubleshooting guides, warranty terms.

Requirements

What you need.

Documents

They don't need to be perfect. PDFs, Word docs, spreadsheets, wikis, Confluence, SharePoint — we handle ingestion.

Access control

We configure role-based retrieval. Finance sees finance docs. Legal sees legal docs. Nobody sees everything unless they should.

A use case

One department, one document set, one question type. Start narrow, expand.
