AI search and retrieval platform for modern apps and commerce
Deliver keyword, semantic, and hybrid results from a single index, with natural-language query understanding built in.
Create, test, and deploy AI agents, and generate grounded conversational answers via retrieval-augmented generation over your own content.
Use behavioral signals to surface related products and tailor results to each visitor's journey.
Curate category pages, pin or boost items, and track performance in dashboards without engineering support.
The enterprise AI search platform that turns documents into outcomes
Turns a full document estate into one governed, machine-readable source of truth, so answers cite the pages that support them.
On-premise or sovereign-friendly deployment of the retrieval stack, with LightOn's own open-weight models underneath.
Prepackaged agents for finding information, comparing against ground truth, extracting and cross-checking, monitoring weak signals, scoring with justification and mapping research.
Production-grade parsing, extraction and retrieval for teams wiring document intelligence into their own products.
