We've worked with enough operators in Alice Springs to know that the brief that arrives in our inbox is rarely the brief that ends up shipped. The first thing we do on any semantic search (RAG) project is sit with your team for a day before we propose anything.
Built and supported here - the way a Alice Springs business would actually use it.
What semantic search (RAG) actually does
Search that understands intent, not just keywords. Your team types what they mean - and gets the right document, ticket, or product from across every system, with citations.
- 01 Indexes Drive, SharePoint, Notion, Slack, your CRM
- 02 Returns answers with source links - no hallucinations
- 03 Permissioned so staff only see what they should
- 04 Re-indexes nightly so results stay fresh
Built on: Pinecone Claude Postgres pgvector Vercel AI SDK

FAQ
How long does semantic search (RAG) take to ship for Alice Springs businesses?
We aim for a working pilot inside 4-6 weeks - narrow scope, real Alice Springs businesses data, measurable outcome. From there it's another 6-8 weeks of hardening before you'd consider it production. Full rollouts (multiple sites, multiple teams) typically land in 3-4 months.
Are there hidden costs we should plan for?
Three to know about: model/API spend (which we set up under your own account, not ours, so you see and control it), any new SaaS subscriptions we recommend, and your team's time during rollout. We surface all three in the quote so there are no surprises.
What's the realistic outcome for Alice Springs businesses?
Average search time drops from 6 minutes to 12 seconds. We don't promise tenfold lifts because we don't see them outside of marketing decks.
Who owns the code and the model setup?
You do, on delivery. We deploy semantic search (RAG) into your own cloud account where possible, with the model setup, prompts, evals and integration code all checked into a repo you own. Pinecone sits in your account too - we don't operate it from ours.
The honest version of a sales call.
No deck. No discovery doc. Just whether this is worth building and what it would cost.
