Azure AI Search & RAG Pipeline

Enterprise knowledge, instantly accessible. Zero hallucinations.

We design, build, and evaluate a production-grade RAG pipeline on Azure AI Search — connecting your documents, SharePoint, and databases to AI agents that give accurate, cited answers.

How It Works

Audit, build, and evaluate in 14 days.

01Days 1–4

Data Source Audit & Index Design

We audit your document sources — SharePoint, Confluence, Blob Storage, SQL, or third-party systems — and design the Azure AI Search index schema, chunking strategy, and embedding configuration.

  • Document source inventory and quality assessment
  • Index schema and field mapping designed
  • Chunking and embedding strategy defined
02Days 5–10

RAG Pipeline Build

We build the end-to-end RAG pipeline — ingestion, chunking, embedding, indexing, retrieval, and generation — connecting Azure AI Search with Azure OpenAI inside an Azure AI Foundry Prompt Flow.

  • Ingestion and chunking pipeline built
  • Vector and hybrid search configured
  • Retrieval-augmented generation flow deployed
03Days 11–14

Evaluation & Accuracy Tuning

We evaluate retrieval accuracy, groundedness, and answer relevance against a curated test set — tuning semantic ranking, chunk overlap, and reranking until the pipeline meets your quality bar.

  • Retrieval accuracy benchmarked
  • Groundedness and relevance evaluated
  • Semantic ranker and reranker tuned

What's Included

The full retrieval stack, properly engineered.

Vector + Hybrid Search

Combine vector similarity search with BM25 keyword search in a single Azure AI Search query — ensuring high recall for semantic queries while maintaining precision for exact-match lookups.

Semantic Ranking

Apply Azure AI Search's semantic ranker to reorder results by language understanding — dramatically improving answer relevance for ambiguous or conversational queries.

Multi-Source Indexing

Index content from SharePoint, Confluence, Azure Blob Storage, SQL databases, and APIs — creating a unified knowledge index accessible to any Azure AI agent or application.

Entra ID Access Control

Preserve document-level security by filtering search results against the querying user's Entra ID group memberships — ensuring users only retrieve content they are authorised to see.

Index Freshness Automation

Configure Azure AI Search indexers with incremental indexing policies — automatically detecting and processing new or updated documents so the knowledge base stays current without manual re-indexing.

Hallucination Guardrails

Implement groundedness checks in the Prompt Flow pipeline — verifying that every generated answer cites retrieved passages, and blocking or flagging responses unsupported by the index.

Who It's For

Is this engagement right for you?

Large document archives

Organisations with thousands of internal documents, policies, runbooks, or product specifications — employees can't find what they need, and AI search changes that.

Knowledge agents over SharePoint

Teams building AI knowledge agents grounded in SharePoint or Confluence — you need a retrieval pipeline that respects permissions, handles large corpora, and returns accurate answers.

Any Azure AI build needing retrieval

Engineering teams building any Azure AI agent that requires accurate, grounded responses — a well-tuned RAG pipeline is the difference between a demo and a production system.

Make your enterprise knowledge instantly accessible — with zero hallucinations.
