EDITOR'S TAKE

RAG specialist. Better document loading, chunking, and retrieval than LangChain for retrieval-first apps. Strong on advanced strategies — hybrid search, re-ranking, recursive retrieval. Now expanded into a general LLM toolkit but RAG is still the sweet spot.

Use this if

Your AI app is mostly retrieval over documents — knowledge base, support bot, internal search.

Skip if

You need broad agent/tool use — LangChain has wider integration coverage.
