Build AI knowledge agents over your enterprise data
LlamaIndex is a document-processing and retrieval platform for building enterprise RAG applications and knowledge agents, offered as the open-source LlamaIndex framework plus the commercial LlamaCloud suite (LlamaParse, LlamaExtract, LlamaCloud Index).
LlamaIndex provides the tooling to connect large language models to private, unstructured enterprise data. Its open-source framework (25M+ monthly downloads) handles data ingestion, indexing, and retrieval for RAG pipelines, while the commercial LlamaCloud platform adds production-grade document parsing (LlamaParse), schema-based structured extraction (LlamaExtract), and managed indexing/retrieval. LlamaParse uses VLM-powered agentic parsing to convert 50+ unstructured file types (PDFs, images, tables, charts, handwriting) into LLM-ready output. LlamaCloud is used to power internal knowledge assistants and document-automation agents across finance, insurance, healthcare, and manufacturing, with enterprise features like SOC 2/HIPAA/GDPR compliance and SaaS or VPC/hybrid deployment.
