RAG development · Toronto

RAG development services in Toronto

Ship faster with senior engineers at offshore rates, overlapping your morning with a daily live stand-up.

Clarigo Infotech builds retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) systems: AI search and assistants that find the right information in your documents, databases and knowledge base, then answer with sources. RAG keeps answers accurate and current without retraining a model, and respects who is allowed to see what.

Canadian companies most often hire us for clinic and healthcare automation, AI agents and custom web and mobile apps.

What we do

What we build with RAG

Chat with your documents

Ask questions across PDFs, policies, manuals and contracts and get answers with citations.

Enterprise knowledge assistants

One place for staff to find answers across Google Drive, SharePoint, Confluence and more.

Customer support answers

Grounded answers for support teams and chatbots, drawn from your help centre and product data.

Search over structured data

Combine document search with SQL and APIs so answers include live numbers.

Permission-aware retrieval

Users only get answers from content they are allowed to see.

Evaluation and tuning

Test sets that measure retrieval and answer quality, and tuning until they pass.

In depth

How we approach RAG development

Why RAG instead of fine-tuning

Fine-tuning changes how a model writes; RAG changes what it knows at the moment it answers. For most business questions RAG is cheaper, easier to update and easier to audit, because every answer points to its source.

Getting retrieval right

Quality depends on how documents are cleaned, split, embedded and searched. We use hybrid search (keyword plus vector), re-ranking and metadata filters, and test retrieval separately from the final answer.

Keeping it current and secure

Connectors keep the index in sync as documents change, and access rules from your source systems are applied at query time so nobody sees what they shouldn't.

Measured, not guessed

We build a test set of real questions with expected answers and track accuracy, citation quality and 'I don't know' rates, so you can see improvement and catch regressions.

Remote, but close to Toronto

Time-zone overlap

We overlap with Eastern Time mornings and run flexible shifts for a live daily stand-up, with progress ready each morning.

FAQ

RAG development services: questions from Toronto

Do you work with companies in Toronto?+

Yes. Clarigo Infotech works with companies across Toronto, including Toronto, Mississauga, Waterloo, as part of clients in 20+ countries. Canadian companies most often hire us for clinic and healthcare automation, AI agents and custom web and mobile apps. We work remotely from India with one in-house team.

What time-zone overlap do we get from Toronto?+

We overlap with Eastern Time mornings and run flexible shifts for a live daily stand-up, with progress ready each morning.

How do you handle PIPEDA and provincial privacy laws?+

We build to PIPEDA principles (consent, limited collection, safeguards and access), keep data in Canadian cloud regions when required, and sign NDAs and data agreements before work starts.

Which currency do you bill in, and what does it cost?+

We bill in Canadian dollars (CAD) or US dollars. Senior engineers typically cost $25 to $49 (USD) per hour, and fixed-scope projects such as an MVP in 25 to 30 days are quoted after a free consultation.

What time are your meetings in Toronto time?+

Our core hours fall outside your day, so we run a flexible shift for a daily stand-up at about 09:30 Toronto time, and the rest of the work moves forward overnight.

Can you build in English and French?+

Yes. We build interfaces and content in English and French, and test them with native speakers before launch.

Where will our data be hosted?+

Usually in AWS Canada (Central) and Canada West (Calgary), Google Cloud Montreal and Toronto, or wherever your data rules require. Everything runs in your own cloud account, so you stay in control.

What is RAG (retrieval-augmented generation)?+

RAG is a way of building AI assistants that first search your own documents and data for relevant information, then use a language model to answer from what was found, usually with citations.

How is RAG different from a normal chatbot?+

A normal chatbot answers from what the model learned in training. A RAG assistant answers from your current, private information, so it is more accurate for your business and can show its sources.
