    Ragas is an open-source library for evaluating and testing RAG and other LLM applications. Github: https://docs.ragas.io/en/stable/, docs: https://docs.ragas.io/. Ragas provides you with different sets of metrics and methods like synthetic test data generation to help you evaluate your RAG applications. Ragas started off by scratching our own itch for evaluating our RAG chatbots last year. Problems Ragas can solve - How do you choose the best components for your RAG, such as the retriever, reranker, and LLM? - How do you formulate a test dataset…

    I built this tool because I wanted a way to just take a bunch of URLs or domains, and query their content in RAG applications. It takes away the pain of crawling, extracting content, chunking, vectorizing, and updating periodically. I'm curious to see if it can be useful to others. I meant to launch this six months ago but life got in the way...

    Ragas is an open-source library designed for evaluating and testing RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) and other LLM applications. It offers a diverse set of metrics and methods, including synthetic test data generation, to help you assess your RAG applications. Ragas was initially developed to address our own needs for evaluating RAG chatbots last year. ### Problems Ragas Can Solve: - How can you select the best components for your RAG, such as the retriever, reranker, and LLM? - How can you create a test dataset without incurring significant expenses and time? We believe there's a need…

    TL;DR: Vector-based RAG performs poorly for many real-world applications like codebase chats, and you should consider 'language maps'. Part of our mission at Mutable.ai is to make it much easier for developers to build and understand software. One of the natural ways to do this is to create a codebase chat, that answer questions about your repo and help you build features. It might seem simple to plug in your codebase into a state-of-the-art LLM, but LLMs have two limitations that make human-level assistance with code difficult: 1. They currently have context windows that are too small to…

    I'm building LiquidIndex, an RAG API service that makes it easy to add personalized context to AI apps. Instead of building a whole system to upload, process, and search through a user’s files or notes, you just call a few APIs. It handles the hard parts - like connecting to Notion or Google Drive, breaking the data into usable pieces, and making it searchable. Then, when you want to answer a question using that data, you just query it, and it gives you the most relevant results - optionally with an LLM-generated answer. No pipelines, no infrastructure, no headaches. Here are the core APIs:…

    Hey hacker news, We’re the cofounders at Psychic.dev (http://psychic.dev) where we help companies connect LLMs to private data. With the launch of Llama 2, we think it’s finally viable to self-host an internal application that’s on-par with ChatGPT, so we did exactly that and made it an open source project. We also included a vector DB and API server so you can upload files and connect Llama 2 to your own data. The RAG in RAGstack stands for Retrieval Augmented Generation, a technique where the capabilities of a large language model (LLM) are augmented by retrieving information…

    Hey HN! I recently created and launched ragobble! I made this out of a personal need to just dump links, videos, and files as I browse the web to be able to quickly summarize or pull certain information from long podcasts , articles, or books. I also wanted to be able to reference these collections of material later on after leaving the application. - Users can create Knowledge-Bases and upload various data types such as links to articles, YouTube videos, files, etc. - You can create multiple Knowledge-Bases and compartmentalize your data. - Users can then asks questions with AI utilizing…
