featuresProgress® Agentic RAG AI Search enhances traditional search functionality by integrating semantic analysis and large language model capabilities. When a user submits a query, Progress Agentic RAG platform semantically interprets it to identify both keyword relevance and contextual meaning. It also retrieves the most pertinent indexed data and sends that context to an LLM to generate a precise, human-like response. The system provides transparency by displaying the exact data sources used in the answer, and if no relevant data is found, it refrains from generating a response. This unique approach maintains accuracy and avoids the hallucinations so common in generative outputs.https://www.progress.com/agentic-rag/features
