RAG development · Zurich
RAG development services in Zurich
GDPR-first, fully documented and hosted in the EU, with a senior team working your morning hours.
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.
Swiss companies most often hire us for fintech, healthcare and enterprise software with strong data protection.

Privacy, quality and clear documentation
European teams tell us they want a partner who treats data protection and quality as the starting point, not an add-on. That is how we work.
GDPR by design
Data minimisation, consent, EU hosting and a signed data processing agreement before any personal data is touched.
Documentation you can audit
Written specifications, architecture notes, test reports and handover documents, so your team or auditors can follow every decision.
Accessible by default
Interfaces built to WCAG guidelines, helping you meet the European Accessibility Act for digital products and services.
Predictable contracts
Fixed scope and price, clear milestones and acceptance criteria, and full ownership of the code and IP.
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.
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.
How we work with Zurich clients
Time-zone overlap
Central European and Indian working days overlap by three and a half to four and a half hours, so your team is online for stand-ups and calls every morning your time.
The Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection (revFADP)
We design to the revised FADP: privacy by design and default, access controls, encryption, data hosted in Switzerland or the EU when you need it, and NDAs and data agreements signed before work starts.
Billing
Invoices in Swiss francs (CHF), euros or US dollars. Typical senior rates are $25 to $49 (USD) per hour, or a fixed price for a defined scope.
Built for Zurich's key sectors
Zurich and Zug companies in finance, insurance and crypto work with us on secure platforms and AI, designed to the revised FADP with full source-code ownership.
Banking and wealth management
Private banks digitise client portals with strict data protection. AI here usually means faster reporting, fewer manual steps and better customer replies.
Pharma and life sciences
Basel firms use AI for research and regulatory documents. We start with one costly process and automate it end to end.
Precision manufacturing and watchmaking
Premium brands invest in e-commerce and brand storytelling. We build AI agents, assistants and automation around these workflows.
Insurance
Insurers automate claims and underwriting. AI here usually means faster reporting, fewer manual steps and better customer replies.
