First, we want to be transparent: Quilt is built upon the foundation of Kotaemon, an open-source project under the Apache 2.0 license. We're deeply grateful to the Kotaemon community for their groundbreaking work. Our goal is to take this technology further, offer a commercial product, and continue supporting the open-source community that made our work possible.
We created Quilt because existing document search and Q&A tools fall short, especially when dealing with large volumes of information. Whether you're a researcher sifting through academic papers, a legal professional navigating case law, or a business analyst examining market reports, traditional search often leaves you frustrated and empty-handed.
Our journey began when we found ourselves drowning in a sea of documents across various projects. We were spending hours trying to extract specific information, connect related concepts, and gain meaningful insights. Building on Kotaemon's solid base, we've pushed the boundaries of what's possible with RAG:
Unmatched scalability: While other solutions struggle with large document sets, Quilt maintains high performance even with hundreds of pages.
Contextual understanding: Our system grasps nuances and relationships across your entire document collection, providing more insightful answers.
Accuracy and trust: Rigorous fact-checking and citation mechanisms ensure you can trust the information Quilt provides.
Lightning-fast responses: Our optimized retrieval stack delivers answers in seconds, not minutes.
Ease of use: No complex setup or training required. Quilt works out-of-the-box with your documents.
We're offering a free tier that lets you try Quilt without even providing an email address. You can chat with up to 100 pages of documents to experience the power of our RAG system firsthand.
Our business model involves selling Quilt as a commercial product, providing enterprise-grade support, and offering custom solutions. However, we remain committed to the open-source community. We plan to contribute improvements back to Kotaemon and support its ongoing development.
We'd love to hear your thoughts and experiences. What document-heavy workflows do you struggle with? How could a tool like Quilt transform the way you work with information? Any ideas for features or integrations you'd like to see?
