Enterprise RAG System for Internal Knowledge Base
SaaS Platform Company • 8 weeks
Challenge
A fast-growing SaaS company with 200+ employees needed to make their extensive internal documentation, API references, and knowledge base searchable and accessible through an AI interface. Their support and engineering teams were spending hours searching through documentation, leading to slower ticket resolution and decreased productivity. Existing search solutions were keyword-based and often returned irrelevant results.
Solution
We designed and implemented a comprehensive RAG system using a vector database (Pinecone), optimized document chunking strategies with semantic chunking, and built a custom retrieval pipeline with reranking. The system integrated with their existing documentation infrastructure and Slack for easy access. We implemented evaluation frameworks to continuously measure and improve retrieval accuracy.
