AI agents and assistants​

Build intelligent conversational systems that go beyond simple question-and-answer:

  • Conversational assistants: Natural dialogue interfaces that understand context and maintain conversation state.
  • AI agents: Autonomous systems that search, reason, and take actions through conversations.
  • Multi-turn interactions: Experiences that remember previous exchanges and provide coherent responses.

Solve the hallucination problem​

Unlike generic AI models, Vectara grounds responses in your actual data:

  • Factual Consistency Scoring: Provides confidence ratings for every AI-generated response.
  • Source citations: Links every answer back to specific documents and passages.
  • Retrieval-first architecture: Ensures AI only uses information from your indexed content.
  • Purpose-built models: Designed specifically for accurate enterprise AI.

Best-in-class retrieval​

Hybrid search combines semantic and keyword capabilities:

  • Semantic understanding: Finds information by meaning, not just keywords.
  • 100+ language support: Searches across documents in different languages simultaneously.
  • Advanced filtering: Narrows results by metadata, document type, recency, and custom attributes.

Enterprise-ready security​

Built for mission-critical applications with complete data control:

  • Zero training on customer data: Your content remains private and secure.
  • SOC 2 Type II and HIPAA certified: Meets enterprise-grade security and compliance standards.
  • Fine-grained access control: Role-based permissions and audit logging.
  • Flexible deployment: Choose SaaS for simplicity or private deployment for complete data control, including VPC and on-premises options.
  • Centralized governance: Unified platform to manage AI agents with comprehensive observability.
