Good advice. Don’t select AI vendors based on capital raised, news headlines or Gigawatts of compute, but on ability to partner and to deliver.

The most interesting takeaway from the keynote? 84% of IT leaders don’t track accuracy. How can you govern and improve something that you don’t measure.

RAG in production is no longer "retrieve a few documents, paste into a prompt, and hope the answer is correct". The modern pattern is Agentic RAG: plan-execute loops, search across enterprise sources and the web, shared memory, tool use, and verification.

Shipping a GenAI solution in production with a clear path to ROI is hard. In our latest post, we outline key challenges in Enterprise RAG, go beyond the basics with agents, and explore how automatic optimization can adapt these systems to domain-specific needs.

AI agents are only as useful as the tools they can reliably access, and the latest release of our Agents SDK makes it easy to connect to MCP servers.

We've prepared a quick guide where we bootstrap a minimal MCP-powered chat agent with just a few lines of code:

Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) systems have gained traction because of their ability to ground generated answers in knowledge sources, allowing for higher accuracy and reliability. However, challenges arise when it comes to evaluation, particularly in the absence of clear ground truth data.
