SnapAdvisor: The Expert at your disposal H24/7 on Snap4City and on your private content.
SnapAdvisor of Snap4City is a multilingual chat-based virtual AI assistant which can be tailored on your domain by providing a content based on PDF documents, PDF slides, coding, and web pages. SnapAdvisor preserves the privacy since it uses the content you provide to perform temporary in the reserved chat you establish with it, and not use the data/files and chats to perform additional training. It can answer in your language, even if the content has been provided in other languages. SnapAdvisor can be classified as an Advanced RAG (retrieval-augmented generation) built by the DISIT Lab on top of Llama 3.3/4 Large Language Models, LLM, and can be put at work on other LLMs.
SnapAdvisor key advantages are:
- working on up-to-date content and thus producing answers: pulls the latest docs records without retraining the model, great for policies, catalogues, dashboards, tickets, etc.;
- lower hallucinations: responses cite retrieved passages, keeping the model anchored to verifiable text, also providing text references and segments;
- domain control: you can decide the knowledge base (internal wikis, PDFs, APIs), easy to scope different “skills” by data set (which are called collections in SnapAdvisor terminology);
- costs & speed vs. fine-tuning: no expensive retraining, update results by updating the index, may also work with a smaller/cheaper LLM;
- explainability capability, which is very important for ethics and decision makers, but also for trainers and producing reports: the user receive answers with references to its own provided sources (for example “see document XXX at page 3…”), which helps users trust the output and prepare reliable reports;
- compliance & governance: it is possible to restrict retrieval to approved content, also apply access controls per user or team;
- personalization: retrieve user- or tenant-specific context (their contracts, past interactions) at runtime;
- multilingual via content: your corpus has multiple languages, retrieval naturally feeds the model the right language passages of the chat;
- modularity: it is possible to pass from one collection of documents to another, and multiple users can work on the advisor asking for different topic on different collections/domains at the same time, independently as needs change, without any interferences among them.
