Building AI Assistants and Agents for mission-critical enterprise applications presents challenges related to accuracy, security, and explainability. An effective end-to-end Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) platform can mitigate AI "hallucinations," reduce bias, and ensure high-precision, contextually accurate outputs. This enhances compliance with copyright standards and delivers consistently trustworthy results. Robust security measures, including access controls, defenses against prompt injection attacks, and adherence to SOC2 and HIPAA compliance requirements, are essential for protecting sensitive data. Additionally, explainability for results and actions aids compliance, simplifies troubleshooting, and builds trust in AI-driven applications.
Such a platform should offer sophisticated capabilities, extending beyond basic vector search by combining semantic and lexical retrieval, advanced reranking, real-time updates, and flexible user-defined functions, while remaining easy to use through a simple API. This empowers developers to build high-performing AI-driven applications without needing deep expertise in complex RAG systems. By integrating a plug-and-play RAG solution, enterprises can lower costs, simplify custom solutions, and benefit from ongoing model and infrastructure updates, all while maintaining compliance and scalability through flexible deployment options like SaaS, on-premises, or VPC hosting.

The Generative AI revolution is transforming how organizations operate, unlocking new use cases across industries and employee workflows. However, challenges such as security, legal compliance, and demonstrating return on investment (ROI) hinder widespread adoption. One approach for solving some of these issues uses a security orchestration layer, enabling organizations to confidently connect any data source with any generative AI model. This approach lets businesses leverage the power of GenAI while maintaining control and confidentiality.
Check out this episode of DMRadio to learn more as Host @eric_kavanagh interviews Oz Wasserman of Opsin. They'll discuss how retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) can be used to optimize the outputs of Large Language Models (LLMs). Combining contextual information with ongoing improvements in foundational models, RAG delivers superior results, ensuring organizations achieve tangible ROI with GenAI investments. Security features like role-based access control (RBAC), auditing, and anonymization can be used to safeguard data privacy and enhance security.
