Search, recommendations and RAG
Help people find the right products and documents, and discover related content through recommendations. We build these experiences on Vespa, combining keyword and vector retrieval with ranking tuned to your content.
For retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), we connect the retrieved information to answer generation, with citations back to the sources. Data pipelines keep indexed content up to date as your information changes.
