Build smarter and more reliable AI applications using RAG

Enhance your LLMs with relevant, purposefully selected knowledge

Learn how to build a RAG system

RAG (Retrieval Augmented Generation) combines information retrieval with advanced text generation to enhance AI responses. When a user asks a question, the system first searches through a curated knowledge base to find relevant information and context. The retrieved information is then seamlessly integrated with a large language model’s processing capabilities to construct responses that incorporate both stored knowledge and generated text.

Benefits of using RAG

  • Minimize AI hallucinations and improve factual accuracy in application responses.
  • Reduce costs compared to fine-tuning by requiring less computational resources and training time.
  • Provide fresh context data ensuring that generated output includes up-to-date information.

How to create RAG applications with Weave

Iterate for continuous improvement

W&B Traces and W&B Evaluations allow you to record LLM inputs, outputs, metadata, and code facilitating comprehensive analysis, iteration, and optimization of your AI application.

Track everything

Weave Models combine data and code, providing a structured way to version your application so you can more systematically keep track of your experiments.

Support safety and compliance

W&B Guardrails act as real-time safety checks on LLM input and output protecting both users and your AI application from harm.
