With VARIOS AI, you can create powerful vector databases based on the Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) approach – we call them knowledge bases. By uploading your own documents, relevant information is stored as embeddings in the system and enriched through semantic search. These knowledge bases can be flexibly assigned to one or more assistants to enable context-sensitive answers. Benefits:
  • Efficient semantics-based search: Instead of superficial keyword matching, the system searches for semantically similar content using vectorization.
  • Relevance plus timeliness: The data set is dynamically expanded – new documents are immediately available. This significantly increases the precision and timeliness of answers (RAG principle).
  • Use in assistance scenarios: Activate knowledge bases in assistants to make company-specific knowledge directly usable.

Knowledge Bases

A list of all your knowledge bases. Use the search field to find a knowledge base by name or select from the alphabetically sorted list. You will see:
  • Name of the knowledge base
  • Number of documents in the knowledge base
  • Upload status of the knowledge base (Online / Offline)
  • Action: “Edit” -> Edit knowledge base
  • Action: “Trash” -> Delete knowledge base
