Chat with documents

Chat with documents enables AI builders to quickly create document-grounded RAG solutions for fast prototyping or deployment. By using the no-code Prompt Lab in IBM® watsonx.ai®, users can upload and configure PDFs, Word docs, and more with ease. Developers can scale with vector stores such as Milvus or Elasticsearch to improve grounding accuracy. Deploy as an application programming interface (API) for AI assistants or agents.


AutoAI RAG

AutoAI for RAG simplifies pipeline building by automatically generating various pipeline configurations. It then evaluates and ranks their performance, presenting the best options on a leaderboard. A process that might traditionally take months—exhausting hundreds of potential combinations—is now streamlined for completion.
