RAG Stack
Knowledge Base Engineering
RAG quality depends on the knowledge base. We engineer content structure, ownership, freshness workflows, permissions, and ingestion so assistants stay accurate and auditable—not stale or contradictory. Delivery aligned to Germany teams (EUR).

Three pilot-friendly options that reduce risk and ship value fast. Choose one, share access, and we deliver a production-ready baseline.
Standard
AI delivery standard
Quality and safety practices we ship with AI builds so the system stays measurable, maintainable, and production-ready.
Logging + tracing
Conversation and tool traces with request IDs, error visibility, and debug-friendly runbooks.
Guardrails + safety
Tool allowlists, PII-safe patterns, refusal behavior, and escalation routes for edge cases.
Evals + regression tests
Golden queries, scorecards, and regression checks so quality improves over time instead of drifting.
Cost + latency controls
Caching, prompt discipline, retrieval tuning, and routing so your app stays fast and predictable at scale.
Documentation + handoff
Architecture notes, environment setup, and next-step roadmap so your team can iterate safely after launch.
Security-first integration
Secrets isolation, role-based access, audit-friendly actions, and minimal data retention by design.

Features
What we deliver
Information architecture
Structure content into consistent hierarchies (topics, products, versions) so retrieval has clean boundaries.
Ownership and update workflows
Define owners, review cycles, and change tracking so knowledge stays fresh and trustworthy.
Permission-aware organization
Design access boundaries and metadata so retrieval respects roles and tenant isolation.
Ingestion and normalization
Normalize docs, wikis, and help centers into consistent formats with stable IDs and metadata.
Freshness and drift monitoring
Detect stale content and drift using change signals and evaluation queries.
Quality playbooks
Guidelines for authorship, formatting, and content updates that keep RAG quality high long-term.

Support knowledge base cleanup
Reduce contradictory answers by restructuring and standardizing support content and ownership.
Enterprise internal documentation
Permission-aware knowledge architecture for SOPs, policies, and internal runbooks.
Product documentation organization
Versioned content structure so assistants answer correctly for the right product versions.
Multi-source knowledge consolidation
Consolidate Notion/Confluence/Drive/Help Center into a coherent retrieval-ready structure.
RAG quality stabilization
Fix knowledge issues that cause retrieval errors and hallucination-like behavior in answers.
AI Case Examples
Micro case studies (anonymous)
A few safe examples of outcomes we build for real operations—no client names, just results.
Secure Mobile Solution in Australian Defence Ecosystem
Problem: Secure data workflows were required in a regulated environment with strict access controls.
Solution: Hardened architecture with strict auth, encrypted storage, and audit-friendly engineering patterns.
Outcome: Deployed securely within a regulated ecosystem with clear handoff and operational guidance.
AI Knowledge Base Across 2,000+ Pages
Problem: Teams needed fast answers across long PDFs, but search was slow and results were inconsistent.
Solution: RAG with hybrid retrieval and reranking, plus grounded answers and safer fallback behavior.
Outcome: Reliable answers with <10s response times and measurable improvements on real queries.
Ops Automation with AI + n8n
Problem: Manual approvals and CRM syncing created delays and data inconsistencies across tools.
Solution: Event-driven automation with validation gates and AI-assisted classification where it improved routing.
Outcome: Reduced manual workload significantly with more reliable workflows and operator visibility.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
If the knowledge base is inconsistent, stale, or poorly structured, retrieval will surface weak sources. Knowledge engineering fixes the root content layer so retrieval improves.
Not always. We usually restructure, normalize, and add ownership/workflows first, then improve high-impact content iteratively.
Yes. We can connect and normalize content from Notion/Confluence/Drive/Help Centers depending on access constraints.
We implement owners, review cycles, change tracking, and incremental indexing so updates are systematic, not ad-hoc.
Yes. We design permission-aware structures and metadata so retrieval respects access boundaries.
No. Better knowledge architecture improves human search and onboarding too, but it’s especially valuable for reliable AI outputs.

Delivery considerations for your region
Compliance & Data (EU)
For Germany/EU delivery, we keep GDPR-first patterns: data minimisation, purpose-limited storage, and explicit access boundaries.
We can work under a DPA (template available on request) and implement pragmatic retention/deletion flows when needed.
- GDPR-first architecture patterns (generic, no legal claims)
- DPA template available on request
- Retention/deletion and export flows where required
- Least-privilege access and safe logging defaults
- Documented data flows and access boundaries
Timezone & Collaboration (EU)
We align to EU working hours with CET-friendly collaboration windows and async progress updates.
We keep delivery predictable: weekly milestones, documented decisions, and clear scope control.
- EU overlap with CET-friendly windows
- Async-first delivery with written decisions
- Weekly milestone demos and progress checkpoints
- Clear change control to avoid surprises
- Escalation path for blockers and risks
Engagement & Procurement (EU)
We support procurement-friendly engagements with clear scopes, milestone plans, and documentation that stakeholders can review.
For EU teams, we can structure invoices and milestones for EUR-based engagements where appropriate.
- EUR-based engagements and invoicing options
- Discovery-first option to reduce delivery risk
- Milestone-based billing and scope sign-offs
- Vendor onboarding documentation on request
- Transparent change control and approvals
Security & Quality (EU)
We prioritise reliability: reviewable PRs, predictable releases, and tests that protect critical paths.
Performance budgets and clear release discipline keep the product stable as it grows.
- CI-friendly testing: unit + integration + smoke tests
- Performance budgets + bundle checks
- Release checklist + rollback-safe deployments
- Security checklist for auth and sensitive data flows
- Observability hooks (logs + error tracking) ready for production
