title: "Why Latent Space Isn't Enough — and What We're Building Instead"
|
||
description: "Everyone's talking about the next generation of Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) platforms. Latent Space is one of the most polished contenders, offering streamlined tools for building LLM-powered apps. But here's the problem: RAG as we know it is incomplete."

**The Latent Space Value Proposition**
|
||
Latent Space provides a developer-friendly way to stitch together embeddings, retrieval, and workflows. If you’re building a chatbot or a knowledge assistant, it helps you get to “Hello World” quickly. Think of it as an **accelerator for app developers**.
|
||
|
||
**The Limits**
|
||
But once you go beyond prototypes, some cracks show:
|
||
|
||
* Context is retrieved, but it isn’t structured in a reproducible or queryable way.
|
||
* Temporal information — what was true *when* — isn’t captured.
|
||
* Justifications for why something was retrieved are opaque.
|
||
* Context doesn’t move fluidly between agents; it’s app-bound.
|
||
|
||
**What We’re Doing Differently**
|
||
Our approach (Chorus + BZZZ + UCXL) starts from a different premise: **context isn’t an app feature, it’s infrastructure**.
|
||
|
||
* We treat knowledge like an addressable space, not just an embedding lookup.
|
||
* Temporal navigation is first-class, so you can ask not only “what’s true” but “what was true last week” or “what changed between versions.”
|
||
* Provenance is baked in: retrieval comes with citations and justifications.
|
||
* And most importantly: our system isn’t designed for a single app. It’s designed for a network of agents to securely share, query, and evolve context.
|
||
|
||
**Conclusion**
|
||
Latent Space is a great product for teams shipping today’s RAG-powered apps. But if you want to build **tomorrow’s distributed AI ecosystems**, you need infrastructure that goes beyond RAG. That’s what we’re building.
