Parse the Folder, Not Just the PDFs: The Relational Tables RAG Needs on a Case File

Enterprise Document Intelligence [Vol.1 #14D] - The index lists what the case type demands before any folder is opened, and the two questions worth building for are not retrieval questions at all

Multi-Document RAG: A Folder of Unrelated PDFs Is One Long Document with a Nested Outline

Enterprise Document Intelligence [Vol.1 #14B] - No shared fields means no index to build. One summary line per file plus each file’s own table of contents, and retrieval routes down two levels

Retrieve One Row from a Table, Not the Whole Table: Row-Level Chunks for RAG

Enterprise Document Intelligence [Vol.1 #7sexies] - The unit of retrieval doesn’t have to be a page or a paragraph. When the corpus carries tables, each body row with its column headers is a chunk in its own right, and it’s often the one row the reader asked about

Three Kinds of RAG Corpus, and What It Costs to Build for the Wrong One

Enterprise Document Intelligence [Vol.1 #14A] - Three questions tell you which shape a document collection has, and each shape wants a different architecture

Loop Engineering for RAG: The Small Loops Inside Each Step, the Big Loops Across the Pipeline

Enterprise Document Intelligence [Vol.1 #13bis] - The four bricks return useful results most of the time. Loop engineering is what the system does the rest of the time: when retrieval misses, when generation fails the schema, when the listing comes back incomplete, when an API call times out. Three control surfaces (trigger, termination, recovery) and one rule that separates a useful loop from a spinning one

Cut an Enterprise RAG Pipeline’s Latency and Cost by Calling the LLM Less, Not by Buying a Faster Model

Enterprise Document Intelligence [Vol.1 #9ter] - The pipeline from Article 9 calls a model at several steps to be sure it is right. On easy questions that is needless latency. A per-question signal routes them past the model, about two seconds saved for a keyword match.

Before Full Agentic RAG: Know How You Decide, and the Parsing Methods You Pick From

Enterprise Document Intelligence [Vol.1 #5nonies] - Nature, plan, execute, synthesize: closing brick 1 with a dispatcher that reads each PDF’s nature and picks the method that fits, fitz, Docling, PaddleOCR, EasyOCR, MinerU or Surya, then folds the outputs into one corpus
