Decoding RAG architecture and showing how Fracto’s Fractional CTOs deploy it safely.

Large-Language-Models (LLMs) thrill users but hallucinate up to 25% of the time—fatal for FinTech risk engines or HealthTech patient portals. Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) fixes the flaw by grounding generation with authoritative data. The RAG market will soar from US$1.24 B in 2024 to US$67.42 B by 2034, a 49.1% CAGR. (1,2)

Why Hallucinations Hurt?

FinTech: False regulatory advice risks seven-figure fines.
Healthcare: Wrong dosage guidance jeopardises patient safety.
LegalTech: Fabricated case law invites sanctions from courts.

How RAG works?

When to fine-tune vs use RAG?

Compliance-First RAG Checklist

Data-classification labels on all retrieved docs.
Access control integrated with Okta or Azure AD.
Redaction layer for PII before vector storage.
Continuous evaluation: factuality, toxicity, bias metrics.

Performance Benchmarks

40–70% hallucination reduction in Fracto pilots (1,2).
35% faster customer resolution versus non-RAG chatbots.
30% higher conversion on FinTech onboarding flows.

Future Roadmap

Agentic RAG: Autonomous agents that plan multi-step research tasks (3,4).
Multimodal RAG: Combining text, images, and tabular data for richer answers.
Edge-RAG: On-device retrieval for privacy-critical mobile apps.

90-Day RAG Deployment Plan

Week 1–4: Corpus inventory & data-quality scoring.
Week 5–8: Vector DB provisioning & embedding pipeline.
Week 9–12: Prompt-template design, feedback tooling, and A/B pilot.
