Design principle

Grounded, not guessing. The assistant answers from the company's own documents and shows its sources. If the documents don't hold the answer, it says so.

Technology stack

What it runs on, and why.

PatternRetrieval-augmented generation (RAG) with source citations

Answers come only from retrieved passages of the customer's own documents.

AI modelLarge language model, chosen per deployment

Reference implementation's model to be confirmed by the technical owner. Our Knowledge Base product uses large language models; a large language model on a managed cloud AI service is also supported.

EmbeddingsText embedding model

Turns each passage into a vector so meaning-based search works.

Data layerVector index plus the source document store

Keeps passages, vectors and links back to the original page.

FeedbackRep and expert ratings and corrections

Improves retrieval and answers over time.

SecurityAccess limited to the customer's team

Documents stay in the agreed environment; hosting options include the customer's own cloud.

Business value and evidence
