Perceive endpoint cleans web content for improved RAG pipelines

Perceive is a new endpoint designed to improve Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) pipelines by cleaning web content before it's processed. It addresses issues with raw HTML, such as token waste, embedding contamination due to markup semantics, and chunking breakdowns that split content unnaturally. The Perceive pipeline fetches URLs, renders JavaScript-heavy pages using a multi-engine approach, and then extracts only the relevant content, discarding extraneous elements like navigation and ads. AI

IMPACT Enhances RAG pipeline efficiency by providing cleaner, more relevant data inputs for LLMs.
