Production RAG AI agents that execute growth workflows safely

Growthcurve develops RAG AI agents that connect your knowledge, CRM, and live APIs to autonomous workflows across marketing and revenue operations. We engineer hybrid retrieval, multi-agent orchestration, and guardrails so outputs stay grounded in your data, with observability to track accuracy, latency, and cost. You get working agents that your team can rely on: from creative and content generation to lead nurturing, support, and reporting. We integrate like internal staff, move faster than traditional teams, and keep you on a monthly rolling basis so delivery stays tied to outcomes.

Hybrid retrieval, higher accuracy

Build agents that answer with evidence, not vibes

Standalone LLMs are impressive, but they often guess when they do not have the right context. RAG AI Agent Development fixes that by retrieving relevant facts from your sources before generation and action. We start by choosing the highest-impact use case (for example, lead qualification, creative iteration, or support deflection) and defining success and risk boundaries. Next we design the knowledge layer: what content is in scope, how it is chunked, and how it is updated. Then we build the agent workflow: intent detection, query planning, retrieval, tool calling, and a validation step that checks citations and confidence. Finally, we deploy with logging and access controls. Research shows RAG can reduce hallucinations by 73 percent and lift response accuracy to around 85 percent in support scenarios, which is exactly what you need before you scale automation.

Why this matters now

AI expectations have shifted from content generation to automation that actually improves performance. Buyers want faster response times, more relevant personalisation, and consistent answers across channels, but generic LLMs struggle with accuracy, governance, and data access. At the same time, your first-party data and internal knowledge are becoming strategic assets, especially as tracking signals weaken and competition for attention rises. RAG AI agents are a practical path forward because they retrieve from your sources in real time and can execute multi-step tasks, not just chat. The stakes are high: if your team cannot ship reliable automation quickly, you will spend more to move slower, while competitors build systems that learn and optimise every week.
Retrieval that works in the real world (hybrid, reranked, updated)

Retrieval that works in the real world (hybrid, reranked, updated)

The quality of your agent is limited by retrieval quality. We implement hybrid retrieval that combines dense embeddings with sparse keyword matching, then rerank results so the model sees the best evidence first. For long documents, we apply chunking and overlap windowing, often using overlap ratios around 20 percent to preserve context without inflating cost. For relational questions like account hierarchies, product bundles, or multi-touch journeys, we add multi-hop retrieval and can connect to knowledge graphs. We also build reindexing schedules and drift checks so agents do not degrade as your business changes. Where needed, we support multiple knowledge bases (for example, public marketing facts vs internal policies) with strict permissions. The outcome is fewer irrelevant answers, faster time-to-resolution, and agents that stay accurate as you ship new products and campaigns.

Agentic workflows: planning, tool calling, and reasoning loops

Agentic workflows: planning, tool calling, and reasoning loops

Traditional RAG is often a single request and response. Agentic RAG is a workflow: the system plans steps, calls tools, and iterates when it is unsure. We develop agents with query routing and query planning so each request hits the best source, whether that is a vector database, CRM, BI table, or external API. For complex tasks, we build multi-step execution chains: retrieve evidence, run calculations in a code interpreter, draft output, then self-evaluate. We include uncertainty quantification and set rejection behaviour, such as refusing to answer below a 0.7 confidence threshold and escalating to a human. When you need more throughput, we design multi-agent teams: one agent retrieves, another analyses sentiment or performance, and a third produces structured outputs like AIDA creatives or experiment briefs. The result is reliable automation for work that normally takes several people and several tools.

Where this fits

RAG AI agents sit between your knowledge and your workflows. They typically connect to a vector database or semantic index, your CRM, product analytics, and external APIs for live signals such as news, pricing, and social trends. On the execution side, agents can push outputs into email platforms, ad tooling, CMSs, help desks, and BI dashboards through tool calling and unified API access patterns. This is not a replacement for your stack; it is a control layer that makes your stack easier to use. We work alongside your marketing, data, and engineering leads to align permissions, define safe actions, and embed review gates. The goal is adoption: agents that your team uses daily because they save time and improve quality.
Full-funnel marketing agents, built for daily execution

Full-funnel marketing agents, built for daily execution

RAG agents become most valuable when they are wired into the full funnel, not used as a novelty chatbot. For top-of-funnel, we connect social listening and news APIs so agents can generate SEO-focused content and social copy based on live trends while staying grounded in your positioning. For mid-funnel, we integrate CRM and behavioural signals to create personalised nurture sequences, ABM plays, and dynamic landing page copy that reflects what a lead has done and what they care about. For bottom-funnel, we build objection handling flows and comparison responses grounded in your docs, plus upsell and cross-sell recommendations based on transaction history. Tactics can include creative variant generation, audience segmentation suggestions, and autonomous campaign optimisation proposals. You get faster iteration across channels without relying on inconsistent freelancers or brittle manual processes.

What success looks like

Success is a blend of reliability, speed, and measurable commercial impact. Early proof points include grounded outputs with consistent citations, fewer escalations caused by wrong answers, and faster cycle times for common tasks like drafting briefs, segmenting audiences, or answering support queries. Over time, you should see operational gains: lower response times, smoother hand-offs, and less manual reporting because agents can summarise performance with explainable reasoning. In marketing, success shows up in more relevant experimentation, improved nurture performance, and cleaner conversion moments through better objection handling and timely offers. We avoid vanity metrics and focus on leading indicators you can validate, plus the levers that move them: retrieval quality, routing logic, and iterative feedback loops.
What is included in RAG AI Agent Development?
We take you from a defined use case to a production-ready agent. That includes use case scoping, data and knowledge-base design, chunking and indexing, hybrid retrieval with reranking, and the agent workflow (routing, planning, tool calling, validation). We also ship guardrails such as confidence thresholds, escalation paths, and approval gates for risky actions. Finally, we add observability: logs, dashboards, and a cadence for iteration so the agent improves rather than drifts. If you need it, we can develop multi-agent systems where specialised agents collaborate on retrieval, analysis, and output generation.
How is development different from a RAG AI agent strategy engagement?
Strategy defines what to build, why it matters, and how it should fit your stack and operating model. Development is the build: the retrieval layer, the agent workflow, integrations, guardrails, and deployment. In development we make specific technical choices (chunking, hybrid search, reranking, tool calling) and test them against real prompts and business scenarios. We also handle production concerns like access control, monitoring, and failure modes. If you already have a strategy, we can implement it. If you do not, we can run a short discovery sprint first so development starts with a clear, prioritised roadmap.
What does hybrid retrieval mean, and why does it matter?
Hybrid retrieval combines two approaches: dense vector search (great for semantic similarity) and sparse keyword search such as BM25 (great for exact terms, names, and edge cases). In real business corpora you need both, because people ask questions in inconsistent ways and critical details often hinge on exact wording. We then add reranking so the most relevant chunks are promoted before the model generates an answer. This improves grounding, reduces irrelevant context, and helps keep costs down by reducing wasted tokens. Hybrid retrieval is one of the most reliable ways to improve accuracy without overcomplicating the system.
How do you reduce hallucinations and wrong answers in production?
We rely on grounding and controls, not hope. RAG retrieves evidence from approved sources before generation, which research shows can reduce hallucinations significantly, including a cited 73 percent reduction over standalone LLMs in some settings. On top of that we add: citations, confidence scoring, query rewriting loops when retrieval is weak, and explicit refusal behaviour below defined thresholds (for example 0.7). We also implement rules for what the agent can and cannot claim, and escalation to a human for sensitive topics like pricing, legal, or regulated content. Finally, observability helps us catch failure patterns early and fix them.
Can you integrate agents with our CRM, CDP, and marketing tools?
Yes. Most value comes from connecting the agent to the systems where context lives and work happens. We commonly integrate with CRMs, CDPs, analytics, CMSs, help desks, ad platforms, and BI tools, using secure API access and tool calling. Where you have many third-party apps, we can use unified integration patterns, including MCP-style connectors, to reduce one-off integration effort. We design permissions carefully: read-only access for early phases, then selective write actions with approval gates as trust grows. The goal is a reliable workflow, not a brittle collection of automations.
Do you build single agents or multi-agent systems?
Both, depending on complexity. For simple workflows, a single well-designed agent with strong retrieval and guardrails is often best because it is easier to monitor and maintain. For complex, multi-step work, multi-agent systems can be more robust. For example, one agent can focus on retrieval and routing, another can analyse sentiment or performance data, and a third can produce structured outputs like creative in AIDA format or an experiment plan. We choose the smallest architecture that meets the need, then expand only when the use case demands it.
What are the most common failure modes, and how do you handle them?
The big ones are retrieval drift, poor chunking, and overconfident outputs. Drift happens when your corpus changes but the index does not, so answers become stale; we mitigate with reindexing schedules and drift checks. Poor chunking can hide key details; we tune chunk sizes and overlap, often using overlap windowing to preserve context. Overconfident outputs are addressed with uncertainty quantification, refusal thresholds, and escalation paths. Another risk is tool misuse, where an agent calls the wrong action; we limit tools, add approval gates, and log every call. These controls make the system safe enough for daily use.
How quickly can we get a working agent into production?
Speed depends on data access and how clear the first use case is, but we aim for rapid proof and controlled rollout. We typically start with a narrow scope, ingest an approved corpus, validate retrieval quality, and ship a pilot agent behind guardrails. From there we expand capability, add integrations, and move from read-only suggestions to supervised execution. Our delivery model is designed to be faster than in-house teams or traditional agencies because we bring a ready-to-deploy team and proven patterns. You are not locked into a long contract, so progress has to be visible month to month.
What should we prepare before kickoff to avoid delays?
Have a clear owner for the use case, a shortlist of the highest-value workflows, and someone who can grant or coordinate access to the relevant systems. We also recommend gathering your core knowledge assets: brand guidelines, product docs, pricing policies, and any existing message libraries. If the agent will touch CRM or customer data, we will need clarity on permissions and data handling rules. Finally, pick a small set of real prompts and edge cases from your team. Those are invaluable for testing, because they reflect how the business actually asks questions, not how we wish it did.
Omnichannel support and client comms with measurable speed gains

Omnichannel support and client comms with measurable speed gains

Many teams start with support and internal enablement because the ROI is immediate and the data is clear. We build RAG agents that answer customer and client questions using your knowledge base, product docs, and policy libraries, with strict citation and escalation rules. We can deploy across web chat, mobile, and messaging, and use visual flow builders for hand-offs and routing. Agents can also summarise tickets, draft replies, and generate internal briefings for account teams. Research indicates RAG-powered agents can cut response times by around 60 percent for client queries, while improving accuracy versus standalone models. We also add analytics for deflection, satisfaction signals, and resolution quality. The outcome is a support experience that scales without sacrificing trust, and an internal team that spends less time searching and more time executing.

Security, access, and SLAs for production deployments

Security, access, and SLAs for production deployments

If an agent can access your data, it must be designed like a production system, not a demo. We implement least-privilege access, environment separation, and clear data boundaries between knowledge bases. We define what the agent is allowed to do (read-only, suggest, or execute) and add approval gates for high-impact actions like pricing changes, campaign launches, or CRM updates. We also build audit logs so you can trace what was retrieved, what was generated, and which tools were called. For enterprise volumes, we design for throughput and reliability, including rate limiting, caching, fallbacks, and error handling. We agree operational expectations up front: response times, on-call coverage where needed, and a clear owner for decisions. You get enterprise-grade security and predictable delivery without a long-term contract.

Observability and iteration: how the agents get better each week

Observability and iteration: how the agents get better each week

An agent that is not monitored will drift. We ship with observability that tracks system health and business outcomes, so improvement is continuous rather than accidental. On the system side we monitor latency, cost per query, retrieval hit rate, reranker performance, and grounding or faithfulness checks. On the business side we tie agent work to funnel movement and efficiency: content output and engagement for TOFU, MQL to SQL progression for MOFU, and conversion, ROAS, CAC and LTV signals for BOFU and retention. We run an evidence-led cadence: weekly review of failures, prompt and routing tweaks, corpus updates, and new experiments. Where appropriate, we use interaction feedback to adapt retrieval strategies over time, improving satisfaction and reducing manual rework. You get a real-time dashboard and a roadmap that is driven by results, not opinions.
