The article explains that enterprise document intelligence can be categorized into three distinct corpus types, each requiring a specific architecture. It outlines how to determine the shape of a document collection through three key questions. The piece also discusses the costs associated with building a system for the incorrect corpus type.

I built four AI retrieval architectures on a laptop and benchmarked them against the same set of documents and questions. Here’s what the results taught me about the trade-offs between plain RAG, grap...

The article outlines a framework for constructing Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) pipelines that progressively add complexity as needed to address observed failure modes. It begins with basic lexical and hybrid search techniques, then incorporates reranking and agentic information‑seeking strategies to improve performance. The approach emphasizes that more sophisticated components should only be introduced when simpler methods prove insufficient.

The article argues that Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) is only one tool in NLP, and many real-world problems—such as request classification, free‑text matching, table reading, and OCR noise cleaning—are better served by simpler, cheaper techniques. It emphasizes the importance of selecting the appropriate method for each task and highlights the engineering challenge of knowing which technique to apply.
