Unlike generic LLM chatbots, this AI agent doesn’t hallucinate or improvise — it retrieves information from your trusted enterprise and commerce data sources to deliver clear, verifiable answers every time. Whether customers are asking about specs, compatibility, pricing, or troubleshooting, Lucidworks Conversational Q&A delivers the right answer — instantly.

Why Lucidworks conversational Q&A agent stands out
It is purpose-built to ingest and navigate complex technical information—not just text. Every layer of the stack is designed to handle, process, and retrieve information intelligently. It can take in large PDFs, break them into meaningful chunks, and search across text, tables, graphs, and charts—capabilities that most other systems can’t match.
From there, it feeds only the most relevant data into the LLM, ensuring precise, context-rich responses grounded in the right source material.
We strive to make the search experience optimized for each user. Working with Lucidworks and using Lucidworks AI helps us propel the search experience forward faster.
