Progress Agentic RAG: The Future of AI-Powered Digital Experiences
Progress Agentic RAG combines autonomous AI agents with retrieval-augmented generation to deliver trustworthy, real-time insights from enterprise content—powering a new era of AI-driven digital experiences and generative CMS platforms like Sitefinity.
Progress Agentic RAG is emerging as a strategic foundation for next-generation AI solutions, combining retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) with autonomous AI agent capabilities to unlock actionable, trustworthy intelligence from enterprise data. It moves beyond traditional static search or rule-based systems to deliver context-aware, dynamic responses enriched by real-time reasoning and seamless integration with modern platforms like Sitefinity CMS. progress.com
What Is Progress Agentic RAG?
At its core, Progress Agentic RAG is a SaaS-based RAG platform that connects large language models (LLMs) with enterprise knowledge sources — including documents, repositories, APIs, and web content — to generate responses grounded in trusted context rather than just pretrained language patterns. This solves common AI challenges such as inaccurate outputs, hallucinations, and lack of traceability. progress.com
Where traditional RAG pipelines perform a single static retrieval pass, agentic RAG introduces autonomous agents that:
- Evaluate queries
- Dynamically select retrieval strategies
- Orchestrate multi-step workflows
- Validate and refine results before generation
This leads to higher accuracy, better relevance, and traceable outputs that are critical for enterprise use cases like legal analysis, healthcare diagnostics, and customer support. progress.com
Key Features and Capabilities
Dynamic Retrieval With AI Agents
Progress Agentic RAG uses a modular architecture where autonomous agents reason about queries, orchestrate retrieval from multiple sources (semantic search, structured databases, web APIs) and refine context before synthesis. This results in adaptive and iterative retrieval rather than static search. progress.com
End-to-End RAG-as-a-Service
Unlike building a bespoke RAG stack, Progress offers a plug-and-play SaaS platform that automatically indexes files and documents from any source, providing out-of-the-box RAG functionality with minimal upfront investment and low operational overhead. progress.com
Trust, Transparency and Governance
Agentic RAG ensures traceable citations and governance controls, enabling compliance teams to audit how answers were generated and from which sources — a must-have for industries with regulatory requirements. investors.progress.com
Multilingual and Flexible Deployment
The platform supports multiple languages and flexible LLM integration, so enterprises are not constrained to a specific model vendor or locale. progress.com
Broad Use Cases
Organizations are using Agentic RAG for:
- Generative internal search and knowledge assistants
- AI-driven customer service agents
- Compliance and document analysis
- Video and media indexing
- Domain-specific enterprise insights across formats like PDF, video, audio and databases progress.com
Progress Agentic RAG and Sitefinity: A New Breed of CMS
One of the most compelling recent applications of Progress Agentic RAG is its integration with Sitefinity CMS. Progress has introduced Progress Agentic RAG for Sitefinity — positioning it as the first generative content management system (CMS) powered by agentic RAG. progress.com
What This Means for Digital Experiences
With Agentic RAG at the core of Sitefinity:
- Content is no longer static — it becomes dynamically generated in real time based on user intent.
- The CMS interprets visitor queries and assembles contextual content experiences on the fly.
- Responses and pages are backed by enterprise-verified content, ensuring relevance and trustworthiness.
- The system supports native multilingual AI, expanding global deployment potential. investors.progress.com
The combination of intelligent retrieval and real-time content assembly enables truly personalized journeys beyond simple personalization rules or manual segmentation.
In short, Sitefinity powered by Agentic RAG becomes an AI-driven experience platform — where the website responds intelligently to intent, not just navigational clicks. progress.com
