3 years ago, you might’ve known @llama_index as a RAG framework. Today we are not a RAG framework. We are an agentic document processing platform 🦙📑 I wrote a blog post detailing the evolution of our company over the past ~3 years and why we believe our current position is enduring in the rapidly evolving landscape of evolving AI. There are two main points that I want to highlight: 1️⃣ One of the most important opportunities in today’s world is to provide high-quality unstructured context to AI agents. We see ourselves as the best in class OCR module that can unlock context from the hardest document containers (PDFs, Word, Powerpoint, Excel, and more) 2️⃣ Agent reasoning loops have gotten a lot more sophisticated. General LLM abstractions are a lot less relevant. Retrieval patterns have completely changed. We need to build deep, focused tooling that actually provides value in this world of long-running agents. Note: We are not giving up on OSS tooling. We think open-source software is extremely important for democratizing AI access. We will continue to build OSS that is more aligned with our core focus area of AI-native document processing. We will continue to support framework users and point them to updated resources for relevant releases. Come check out our blog: https://t.co/2hGgzYtI3v Our core managed platform is LlamaParse.
