What does this service include?

A RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) system allows an AI to answer questions using your own documents, manuals, knowledge base or internal data — without exposing that information to third-party services. We design and build private RAG architectures that give your team access to powerful AI while keeping full control of your data.

Ideal for

  • Companies with technical manuals, regulations or internal procedures they want to make searchable.
  • Businesses that want to automate customer service using their own FAQs and documentation.
  • Law firms, consultancies or healthcare providers with sensitive documents that cannot be sent to ChatGPT.
  • HR departments that want employees to query policies and contracts via a chat interface.
  • Sales teams that need instant access to technical product sheets and pricing.

Problems we solve

  • Using ChatGPT directly with confidential documents — violating GDPR.
  • Generic AI that hallucinates answers not grounded in company data.
  • Knowledge bases that are impossible to search because they are scattered across PDFs and intranet pages.
  • AI solutions that work for demos but are not reliable enough for production use.
  • Vendor lock-in with cloud AI providers that train on your data.
01

What is a RAG architecture?

RAG stands for Retrieval-Augmented Generation. It is a technique that combines a retrieval system (which finds the most relevant documents from a knowledge base) with a generative AI model (which produces a natural language response). The result: an AI that answers based on your specific information, not general internet knowledge.

1

RAG explained without jargon

Imagine a very intelligent assistant that, before answering any question, first searches your company's document library and reads the relevant pages. That is exactly what a RAG system does — automatically, in milliseconds. The AI does not invent; it responds based on what it has found in your documents.

2

How RAG lets AI respond with your company's information

When a user asks a question, the system converts it into a mathematical representation (embedding), searches the vector database for the most semantically similar document fragments, passes those fragments to the AI model as context, and the model generates a response grounded in that specific content.

3

The difference between RAG and fine-tuning

Fine-tuning modifies the AI model itself by training it on new data — expensive, slow and difficult to update. RAG keeps the model unchanged and provides it with dynamic context at query time. This means you can update your knowledge base without retraining the model, and the system always reflects the latest version of your documents.

02

The problem with using ChatGPT with confidential information

Many businesses are already using ChatGPT to process internal documents, customer data or legal information — without realising the implications. Sending confidential data to a public AI API means that data potentially enters third-party training pipelines and leaves the control of your organisation.

1

Why you should not send confidential information to ChatGPT

OpenAI's standard API terms allow using submitted data to improve their models unless you explicitly opt out (available only on enterprise plans). Even with opt-out, the data transits through US infrastructure, which creates GDPR complications for EU businesses handling personal data or trade secrets.

2

How RAG lets you use powerful AI without exposing your data

With a private RAG architecture, the AI model processes your documents within your own infrastructure. Nothing is sent to external servers. You get the analytical power of modern AI with complete control over where your data lives and who can access it.

3

GDPR compliance: on-premise and private VPC deployment

We specialise in deploying RAG systems that meet EU data protection requirements — either on your own servers or in EU-region private cloud infrastructure.

Data sovereignty

All data — documents, embeddings, query logs and responses — remains on infrastructure you control. No third-party can access it without your explicit authorisation.

On-premise vs VPC vs public cloud

On-premise: maximum control, highest upfront cost, ideal for highly sensitive sectors (legal, healthcare, defence). Private VPC (AWS/Azure/GCP in EU region): balance of control and scalability, data stays within your virtual network. Public cloud API: simplest to deploy but least control — not recommended for confidential data.

How we guarantee GDPR compliance

We document the complete data flow, ensure all processing occurs within EU jurisdiction, implement access controls and audit logging, and provide the technical documentation you need for your GDPR records of processing activities.

03

Our RAG architecture service

We design, build and deploy custom RAG systems from document audit to production deployment. Our approach prioritises retrieval accuracy, data privacy and maintainability — so the system works reliably in real business use, not just in demos.

1

Document analysis and ingestion pipeline

We audit your document repository, define the ingestion strategy (chunking size, overlap, metadata tagging) and build the pipeline that converts your documents into searchable vector embeddings.

2

Vector database implementation

We select and configure the vector database best suited to your scale and privacy requirements.

What is a vector database?

A vector database stores numerical representations (embeddings) of text fragments that capture their semantic meaning. When you query the system, your question is converted to an embedding and the database finds the most semantically similar document fragments — enabling true meaning-based search rather than keyword matching.

Tools: Qdrant and Pinecone

Qdrant is our preferred choice for private deployments — open source, self-hosted, high performance and no data leaves your infrastructure. Pinecone is a managed cloud vector database, faster to set up and ideal when cloud deployment is acceptable and you need to scale quickly.

Keeping the knowledge base up to date

When documents change, the relevant embeddings must be updated. We build automated re-indexing pipelines that detect document changes and update the vector database without manual intervention.

3

Integration with local models and private APIs

We integrate the RAG retrieval layer with your chosen AI model: fully local open-source models (Llama 3, Mistral, Qwen) via Ollama or vLLM for maximum privacy, or private API access to Claude or GPT-4 on enterprise plans with data processing agreements.

4

Deployment on your private server

The entire stack — document store, vector database, embedding service, LLM and API layer — is deployed on your own VPS, dedicated server or private VPC. You own the infrastructure and can audit every component.

04

RAG use cases

RAG architectures are not a single product — they are an architectural pattern that can be applied to many different business problems. The common thread: any situation where you need AI to respond accurately using a specific body of knowledge.

1

Technical manuals, regulations and internal procedures

Engineers, technicians or compliance officers can ask natural language questions and get precise answers with exact references to the relevant sections of manuals or regulatory documents.

2

Customer service and FAQs

A RAG-powered chatbot that answers based on your actual product documentation, warranty terms and support guides — not generic AI responses. Fewer hallucinations, more accurate answers, higher customer trust.

3

HR policies, contracts and internal documents

Employees can ask HR policy questions, search contracts or find the relevant clause in an agreement — without waiting for HR to respond or manually searching hundreds of documents.

4

Sales and product data sheets

Sales teams can query technical specifications, compatibility information and pricing directly from the company's product database — even during a call with a customer.

05

RAG system implementation process

We follow a structured four-phase implementation process that goes from document audit to production deployment, with testing and validation at each stage.

1

Phase 1 — Document audit and knowledge base design

We catalogue your documents, define scope, identify data sensitivity levels and design the knowledge base architecture. Deliverable: implementation plan with timeline and infrastructure requirements.

2

Phase 2 — Ingestion pipeline and vector database build

We build the document processing pipeline, configure the vector database and run the initial ingestion. We test retrieval quality with a representative set of queries before proceeding.

3

Phase 3 — LLM integration and prompt engineering

We integrate the AI model, engineer the system prompt and context injection strategy, and tune the response format for your use case. We evaluate accuracy and hallucination rate against your test query set.

4

Phase 4 — Deployment, testing and handover

We deploy to production infrastructure, run load and accuracy testing, and hand over with complete documentation, admin guide and team training session.

/ FAQ

Frequently asked questions about RAG Architecture

What is RAG and how does it reduce AI hallucinations?

RAG grounds AI responses in your actual documents. Instead of generating an answer from training data, the model first retrieves the most relevant passages from your knowledge base and generates an answer based on that specific context. This dramatically reduces incorrect or invented answers.

Can I use a RAG system without sending data to OpenAI or Anthropic?

Yes. We can deploy fully local RAG architectures using open-source models (Llama 3, Mistral) that run entirely on your own infrastructure. No data leaves your servers. This is the recommended approach for sensitive business, legal or healthcare documents.

Is a RAG system GDPR compliant?

A properly architected RAG system can be fully GDPR compliant. The key is data sovereignty: keeping all documents, embeddings and processing within EU infrastructure under your control. We specialise in GDPR-compliant RAG deployments on private servers and EU VPCs.

What types of documents can be processed?

PDFs, Word documents, HTML pages, spreadsheets, plain text and structured data (JSON, CSV). We design the ingestion pipeline based on your document types and update frequency.

How is the RAG system kept up to date when documents change?

We configure automated re-indexing pipelines that detect new or modified documents and update the vector database accordingly. You can also trigger manual re-indexing for critical document updates.
