R2R

A system that lets AI search your documents and answer questions with sources.

New this week

What it does

R2R takes in documents and lets AI answer questions about them with citations, a method called retrieval-augmented generation (RAG). It offers hybrid search, knowledge graphs and document management through an API.

A "Deep Research" feature pulls from your documents and the web for harder questions.
