This service returns the contents from the database with the most similar vector embeddings to the question and optionally also uses an LLM to construct a custom answer to the user's question using the retrieved contents.

See OpenAPI specification or SwaggerUI for more details on how to call the service.

Optional components

Align Score

In the Process Flow above, Step 12: Check if answer is consistent with content can be done using a custom AlignScore model instead of another LLM call.

To use the custom AlignScore model, AAQ needs access to the AlignScore service. See documentation for how to setup the service and configure AAQ to call it.
