• Unstructured data lakes
• Real-time streaming sources

Action Interface

API-driven effector systems for:

• Automated workflow execution
• Cross-platform integrations
• Dynamic environment interaction

Multi-Agent RAG Architecture (MARS)

Architecture Layers

1. Orchestration Layer

Latency	GPU-parallel agent execution	Response time <1s
Scalability	Modular agent deployment	Linear resource scaling

Financial Analysis Use Case

Multi-Agent Workflow Implementation

from langgraph.graph import StateGraph

# Initialize specialized agents
query_planner = Agent("gpt-4-turbo", task="query_decomposition") 
context_agent = Agent("claude-3", task="data_enrichment")
execution_agent = Agent("llama-3", task="sql_generation")

# Build state machine
workflow = StateGraph(AgentState)
workflow.add_node("planning", query_planner)
workflow.add_node("enrichment", context_agent)
workflow.add_node("execution", execution_agent)

# Define edges
workflow.add_edge("planning", "enrichment")
workflow.add_edge("enrichment", "execution")

# Execute financial query
result = workflow.run("Analyze Q4 earnings risk factors")

Performance Metrics

• 65% faster financial report generation
• 92% accuracy in regulatory compliance checks
• Real-time data versioning through dedicated agents
