1

Connect your data

Create file buckets and upload files (PDF, text), connect SQL databases, crawl websites, or sync Firebase/Firestore. Each source feeds into a collection—your knowledge base.

Create collections

Create a collection for each use case—e.g. product docs, internal wiki, support FAQs. Add your embedding provider and vector database keys (BYOK). SimplyRAG handles the rest.
