When NOT to use RAGLight

Constraint-first guidance from category fit and live maintenance signals - not marketing copy.

  • Avoid using RAGLight if your workflow strictly demands proprietary integration methods that are not supported by its modular framework structure.
  • If the project focuses on a specific LLM without the need for flexibility or interchangeability, the overhead of configuring diverse integrations in RAGLight might be unnecessary.
