Inquir

Inquir sells search as a hosted service, so you call an API instead of running your own search servers.

Pricing is not something we can quote here, so check the site before planning a budget.

Inquir is a search-as-a-service platform for developers and businesses that lets you build custom search engines and Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) systems on top of your own data.

The feature list covers real-time indexing, full-text search, dynamic queries and context-aware search.

You can pull in different data sources, index them, and query the results from inside an application through the API.

The RAG side is the part that matters if you are building a chatbot or assistant that needs to answer from your documents rather than from a general model alone.

The tool is geared toward people comfortable working with an API, though it is also tagged as no-code and low-code.

Expect to spend your time on integration and data setup rather than on managing infrastructure.

Inquir suits teams that want search and RAG without assembling the pieces themselves.
