What changes when it is aviation
Your documents do not arrive as clean markdown. They are scanned PDFs, merged cells, ten-year-old templates. The ingestion pipeline is most of the work, and we build it for the corpus you actually have.
In aviation, airworthiness and safety regulation constrain anything touching maintenance or operations. That single fact reshapes how rag & knowledge retrieval has to be built here, the guardrails, the approval points and the evidence trail are design inputs rather than things bolted on before go-live.
The workload we are most often asked to take on first is maintenance document processing, usually integrated against MRO systems. We build the smallest thing that proves the case, put it in front of real users, and expand only what earns its keep.
Built by engineers who ship production systems, not by a practice that subcontracts the build. You own the code, the models where they are open-weight, and the documentation to run it without us.
The sector constraints we design around
- Defining constraint
- airworthiness and safety regulation constrain anything touching maintenance or operations
- Regulations in scope
- DGCA regulations · ICAO standards · maintenance record requirements · security directives
- Systems of record
- MRO systems · departure control · crew management · reservation systems
- Where we usually start
- maintenance document processing
RAG & Knowledge Retrieval workloads in aviation

- Hybrid keyword plus vector retrieval with reranking
- Citations on every answer, traceable to the source page
- Permission-aware retrieval that respects existing access rules
- Retrieval quality benchmarked against a labelled question set
Questions from this sector
Can AI touch maintenance decisions?
In an advisory and documentation capacity, yes. Airworthiness decisions remain with licensed engineers, and the system supports rather than substitutes for that judgement.
What about passenger data?
Handled under DPDP and applicable international requirements, with strict retention limits.
RAG or fine-tuning?
RAG for knowledge that changes and must be cited; fine-tuning for style, format and task behaviour. Most production systems use RAG for the facts and light fine-tuning or few-shot prompting for the form.
How accurate will it be?
We build a labelled question set from your domain and report retrieval precision and answer accuracy against it. That number is the deliverable. We do not ship a system whose quality nobody has measured.
Can it respect our existing permissions?
Yes. Retrieval is filtered by the user's actual entitlements, so the assistant can never surface a document the user could not already open.
