Relationships across systems, not just documents
Who each tool is for
Curiosity
For industrial teams that need structured context and on-premises control. Knowledge lives in engineering systems, structured records and regulated environments, and the answers have to reason over how those things connect.
Contextual AI
Contextual AI is a platform for building retrieval augmented generation applications for expert work in areas such as engineering and manufacturing. It grounds answers in a company's documents and provides citations, delivered mainly as a managed cloud service. Its focus is high quality RAG over document knowledge.
