WhyHow.AI is building tools to help developers bring more determinism and control to their RAG pipelines using graph structures. If you're thinking about, in the process of, or have already incorporated knowledge graphs in RAG, we’d love to chat at team@whyhow.ai, or follow our newsletter at WhyHow.AI. Join our discussions about rules, determinism and knowledge graphs in RAG on our newly-created Discord.
