Could you build this?

Partial A vectorless, reasoning-based RAG system relies on novel knowledge graph indexing, structured entity extraction, and iterative multi-step reasoning algorithms beyond off-the-shelf vector DB calls.

What it would actually take: This architecture replaces standard vector embeddings with symbolic representations, graph databases (Neo4j), or BM25/hybrid lexical-knowledge graph indices paired with multi-hop tree-of-thought or reasoning LLMs. The difficult challenge is engineering scalable, automated entity-relationship extraction and deterministic query resolution pipelines that remain performant and accurate across diverse unstructured document corpuses.
