06What is RAG (retrieval-augmented generation)?
RAG is an AI technique that retrieves relevant information from your own documents or databases and passes it to a language model, so answers are grounded in your data and can cite their sources.
07What are autonomous AI agents?
Autonomous AI agents are AI systems that plan and carry out multi-step tasks using tools and data, such as researching, drafting, updating records or triaging requests, with human review where it matters.
08How does a project with I.STEM Lab start?
With a short discovery call. We learn your goals and constraints, then propose a scoped first phase, usually a proof of concept, so you can see value before committing to a larger build.
09Where is I.STEM Lab based?
The I.STEM Lab team is based in Nepal, and we work with clients remotely worldwide.
