LlamaIndex

Framework specialized in data ingestion, indexing, and retrieval for LLM applications. The go-to for complex RAG pipelines.

LightRAG

RAG framework that builds a knowledge graph from documents, enabling retrieval at both local (specific facts) and global (thematic) levels. Outperforms naive RAG on complex questions requiring reasoning across multiple document sections. EMNLP 2025.
