They ignore version and status
A retired spec sheet, a superseded policy, and the current version all return the same way. The user has to sort it out.
Your knowledge base is valuable. It’s also a maze.
Agentic Search turns large, unstructured document libraries — with conflicting versions, retired files, and overlapping sources — into a system that retrieves the right knowledge, from the right version, with the source visible.
Experience Cortex Live
The fragment below is a live, fully interactive instance of Cortex pre-configured for product Q&A. Ask a real question. Get a real answer.
- Type a compatibility or specification question. Cortex retrieves across the ingested document set and returns a structured answer with conditions and caveats.
- Click any citation number to go directly to the source: document name, version, and section.
- If two documents disagree on the same parameter, the conflict is flagged inline.
This is not a simulation. Every answer is generated from the pre-loaded documentation, exactly as it would work on your own product library.
The problem
Most search tools treat your knowledge base as a flat pile of text
They match words, not intent
A question about firmware compatibility returns every document that mentions firmware — not the one with the answer.
They surface results without evidence
You get a link. You still have to read the document, find the section, and decide if it applies.
What you get
Intent-based retrieval
- Ask in plain language and Cortex finds the right answer across all content types — text, tables, images, and more — not a ranked list of documents to browse.
- Ask "what's the recovery ratio for loratadine at mid-QC?" and Cortex surfaces the exact table, chart, or section that contains the answer, from the right version, with the source linked.
- No scrolling, no guessing which file applies.
Version-aware results
Active and retired documents are treated differently. The right version surfaces; conflicts are flagged, not merged.
Cited answers
Every result is linked to its source — document, version, and section number.
Gap detection
If the answer isn't in the knowledge base, that's shown explicitly — not papered over with a plausible-sounding response.
Governed collections
Scope the knowledge base by team, product line, client, or policy domain — nothing crosses boundaries without explicit configuration.
How it works
1
Curate — knowledge managers connect sources, upload documents, and scope collections. Cortex AI-assists with tagging: status (active, retired, superseded), domain, and version. Collections stay current as documents change.
2
Query — anyone who needs an answer asks in plain language. No training, no query syntax. Cortex retrieves the right passage from the right version and returns it with a citation. Different people, different moment, same knowledge base.
Used in
Technical fit
Works best with: large document libraries where version matters — technical specs, regulatory filings, product documentation, internal policy, or research corpora
Integrates with: document repositories, shared file storage, and websites
Deployment: Cube5-hosted single-tenant, customer VPC, or on-prem
Data boundaries: collections scoped by team, client, product line, or policy domain — nothing crosses boundaries without explicit configuration
