RAG in 30 seconds

Retrieval-augmented generation, or RAG, is a technique that retrieves relevant documents from a knowledge base and places them in a language model prompt, so answers are grounded in your content rather than in model memory alone.

A working RAG system is a pipeline: chunking, embedding, indexing, retrieval with filters, reranking, prompt assembly and an evaluation loop that measures whether retrieval actually helped.

What to check before you hire a RAG engineer

  • Chunking and reranking decisions, with evidence of measured improvement
  • Handling the case where nothing relevant is retrieved
