Project Overview

The Enterprise RAG Knowledge Assistant enables employees to ask natural language questions about internal company knowledge bases — policy documents, technical guides, meeting notes, and reports — and receive accurate, sourced answers.

The system is built on a Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) architecture using LangChain. Documents are chunked, embedded, and stored in ChromaDB (local) and Pinecone (cloud-scale). Groq's ultra-fast LLM inference ensures sub-second response times.

A Gradio chat interface with source attribution shows users exactly which documents were used to generate each answer, building trust in the system. The REST API allows the RAG engine to be integrated into existing company intranets or Slack/Teams bots.

What You'll Learn

  • Design and implement a full RAG pipeline using LangChain
  • Chunk and embed enterprise documents with optimal strategies
  • Build hybrid retrieval using ChromaDB (local) and Pinecone (cloud)
  • Integrate Groq API for low-latency LLM generation
  • Build a Gradio chat interface with source citation display
  • Expose the RAG engine as a REST API for enterprise integration
