FastGPT serves as a comprehensive AI agent development and deployment framework designed to simplify the creation of intelligent, knowledge-driven applications. It integrates data connectors for ingesting documents, databases, and APIs, performs preprocessing and embedding, and invokes local or cloud-based models for inference. A retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) engine enables dynamic knowledge retrieval, while a drag-and-drop visual flow editor lets users orchestrate multi-step workflows with conditional logic. FastGPT supports custom prompts, parameter tuning, and plugin interfaces for extending functionality. You can deploy agents as web services, chatbots, or API endpoints, complete with monitoring dashboards and scaling options.

MindSearch provides a modular Retrieval-Augmented Generation architecture designed to enhance large language models with real-time knowledge access. By connecting to various data sources including local file systems, document stores, and cloud-based vector databases, MindSearch indexes and embeds documents using configurable embedding models. During runtime, it retrieves the most relevant context, re-ranks results using customizable scoring functions, and composes a comprehensive prompt for LLMs to generate accurate responses. It also supports caching, multi-modal data types, and pipelines combining multiple retrievers. MindSearch’s flexible API allows developers to tinker with embedding parameters, retrieval strategies, chunking methods, and prompt templates. Whether building conversational AI assistants, question-answering systems, or domain-specific chatbots, MindSearch simplifies the integration of external knowledge into LLM-driven applications.
