LlamaIndex Newsletter 2024-07-16
Hello, Llama Family! 🦙
Welcome to this week’s edition of the LlamaIndex newsletter! We’re thrilled to share some exciting updates about our products, the implementation of GraphRAG, demos that have achieved over $1M in ARR, extensive guides, in-depth tutorials, and hackathons.
Before we get into the details of our newsletter, we’re thrilled to share the beta launch of LlamaCloud. This new data processing layer boosts RAG workflows with sophisticated parsing, indexing, and retrieval functions. Alongside this, we’re also introducing LlamaTrace in partnership with Arize AI, which provides unmatched tracing, observability, and evaluation capabilities for LLM application workflows.
