Benchmarking Contextual AI

Scalytics introduces SynthLink, an open-source framework for benchmarking contextual AI in enterprise settings. Unlike simple Q&A tests, SynthLink’s 60 multi-hop challenges measure an AI’s ability to link evidence, verify claims, and synthesize insights across diverse sources. A transparent five-metric scoring system—covering answer accuracy (F1), retrieval precision (P@5), reasoning quality (RQS), fact-checking (FCS), and iterative efficiency (IE)—yields an aggregate score that reflects research-grade performance.

The Future of AI Agents Starts at the Edge

It's only a matter of time before AI becomes a mainstream technology, but to build effective AI systems, we need to rethink how we manage data. Scalytics builds a decentralized approach where data is processed at the edge using AI agents guided by the Agent Context Protocol (ACP). This approach, which uses data in motion and agent-based RAG, makes AI systems faster, more responsive, and more secure. It also challenges the traditional centralized data lake model.

Data Federation vs. Data Centralization

Organizations deal with huge data sets from multiple sources. Often data consolidation is used to consolidate data using ETL tools into large single data lakes. The downside of this approach is high costs and high complexity, which leads to complex data integration processes. New cloud applications often introduce isolated methods, tied to closed cloud services. Data federations, including in situ data processing, provide a solution to address data access issues and reduce complexity of data integration.
