Ragas for anyone building RAG pipelines. It evaluates your retrieval quality before you've written a single line of product code. Faithfulness, answer relevance, context recall are all measurable and automatable. Most teams I've seen find out their retrieval is broken in production. Ragas tells you in Week 0. Completely changes how you scope the build.
