01. What This Service Does

What This Service Does

Your organization has years of knowledge locked in documents staff struggle to find. Policy manuals, SOPs, compliance guides, past project records. Staff spend time searching, give up, or ask whoever might know. Both outcomes are slow and produce inconsistent answers.

Tayana builds a retrieval system over your existing documents. A staff member types a question in plain language and gets a sourced answer in seconds. The system uses the same underlying technology behind tools like CustomGPT, Google Gems, and enterprise AI search platforms, built entirely around your own files and your own environment.

03. The Process

How It Works

1

Document audit

Tayana reviews your document library with you, identifies sources to include, and flags quality issues that would affect retrieval accuracy. You confirm scope before work begins.

2

Scope definition

You specify the departments and document types the system covers. Tayana documents what falls in and out so both sides have clear expectations.

3

Indexing

Your team provides the finalized document set. Tayana handles formatting and indexing using vector search and retrieval AI, the same foundational approach behind platforms like CustomGPT, Google Gems, and enterprise AI search tools.

4

System build

Tayana configures the retrieval interface, sets source citations on every response, and applies access controls matching your team structure.

5

Testing

The system is tested against real staff questions. Tayana tunes accuracy with you before deployment.

6

Deployment

The system goes live. Tayana provides a staff orientation and documents how to add new content going forward.

04. Deliverables

What You Receive

05. Scope and Cost

Timeline and Investment

Timeline

4 to 6 Weeks

From document handover to deployment. Well-organized digital libraries typically reach go-live in four weeks. Scattered or inconsistently formatted files may extend this to the full six.

Investment

From $10,000

For a single-department build. Multi-department deployments covering large document volumes are scoped based on document count and access control complexity.

A monthly support retainer is available for ongoing updates and system tuning after go-live.

06. Questions

Common Questions

How is this different from the search function in SharePoint or Google Drive?+

Standard search returns files that contain your keywords. This system returns a direct answer with a source citation. Staff do not open ten files to find one paragraph.

Does this use RAG or vector search?+

Yes. The system is built on retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) and vector search, the same foundational technology behind platforms like CustomGPT, Google Gems, and enterprise AI search tools. Tayana selects and configures the specific components based on your document volume and hosting requirements.

What document formats does it support?+

PDFs, Word documents, Excel files, and standard text formats are all supported. Scanned documents without readable text require an additional processing step before indexing.

Will it pull answers from outside our documents?+

No. Every response cites a source, and the system flags questions that fall outside its indexed documents. It does not draw from the internet or general knowledge.

How do we add new documents after go-live?+

Tayana documents the indexing process at handover. Most clients handle routine updates internally. A monthly retainer is available for organizations that prefer Tayana to manage updates on an ongoing basis.

What if the answers are not accurate during testing?+

Testing is a built-in phase, not an afterthought. Tayana adjusts configuration and retests until accuracy meets the agreed standard. The engagement does not close until that threshold is reached.
