Build Your Own GraphRAG System
Knowledge Graphs That Outperform Vector Search—Build, Don't Rent
RAG only works when you find the right context. Knowledge graphs ensure you always do.
Retrieval Augmented Generation is powerful, but only when you can quickly identify and supply the most relevant context to your LLM. This masterclass shows you how to use knowledge graphs to model your RAG data and deliver better performance, accuracy, traceability, and completeness. You'll learn vector similarity-based approaches, semantic layers, agentic RAG patterns, and how to generate Cypher queries that retrieve precisely the data your LLM needs. By the end, you'll have built a production-quality GraphRAG system that dramatically outperforms basic vector search.

Frequently Asked Questions
No. We cover Neo4j and Cypher from the ground up, including installation and basic queries. By the end, you'll be proficient in graph database operations.
Most RAG tutorials stop at vector similarity search. This course goes further—knowledge graphs, Cypher generation, agentic RAG, and the Microsoft GraphRAG pipeline. You'll build a production-quality system, not a toy demo.
Vector search finds similar content but misses relationships. GraphRAG captures entities, relationships, and context—enabling multi-hop reasoning, better traceability, and more accurate answers to complex questions.
Yes. You'll build a complete GraphRAG system with vector search, Cypher generation, agentic retrieval, and proper evaluation metrics. A real production system, not a tutorial project.
GraphRAG delivers better accuracy, traceability, and completeness than basic RAG. For enterprise applications where correctness matters—legal, medical, financial—the graph advantage is significant.
No. Everything runs on a standard laptop. We use Neo4j (free tier available) and cloud LLM APIs. No specialized hardware required.
