sorry this might be a dumb question but I am not really clear if they have a pricing structure and how much that is. I couldnt find any pricing directly linked to the Web Search API but then i see references that you use 'AI Gateway credits', but I also couldnt find pricing or free limits for those ones as well. Can somebody cue me in?

I agree, looks pretty terrible...
I love that I am a part of this with my Steamdeck. Hands down great machine and absolutly incredible what you can do with what I thought to be be quiet limited hardware
Re:From zero to a RAG system: successes and failures on Thursday March 26, 2026 @08:53PM (#47537823)
I agree, I attempted a similar project a year ago and the retrival part is so critical. To work half decent you need some serious strategy for metadata, chunking, etc. E.g. how do you deal with tim series data? Like i am not looking for any quarterly numbers but the ones from Q2 2025, Or the research report from 4 weeks ago... And how do you deal with images. We had heaps of companiy knowledge in pptx which you can convert to text but what about pictures in the presentations. Our analyst presentations sometimes consist mostly of charts and visuals, how are they embedded? Also imo for 90% of the time companies dont need a RAG system but a good search / retrival system.

Maybe we should build a prediction model of upcoming events based on volume of bets made on polymarket
