Oracle says its new Trusted Answer Search can deliver reliable results at scale in the enterprise by scouring a governed set of approved documents using vector search instead of large language models (LLMs) and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG).
Available for download or accessible through APIs, it works by having enterprises define a curated “search space” of approved reports, documents, or application endpoints paired with metadata, and then using vector-based similarity to match a user’s natural language query to the most relevant of pre-approved target, said Tirthankar Lahiri, SVP of mission-critical data and AI engines at Oracle.
Instead of retrieving raw text and generating a response, as is typical in RAG systems that rely on LLMs, Trusted Answer Search’s underlying system deterministically maps the query to a specific “match document,” extracts any required parameters, and returns a structured, verifiable outcome such as a report, URL, or action, Lahiri said.
