A no-code, always up-to-date RAG server for any vector database — built on the Pathway Live Data Framework. Point serviette at a folder of documents, pick a vector database and an embedder in one YAML file, and run two commands: you get a chat and a REST API that answer from those documents and cite their sources. From then on, any change to the documents — an edit, a new file, a deletion — is reflected in the answers within seconds. serviette runs on Pathway, which needs a free license key — one click at (GitHub or LinkedIn sign-in). Every command below expects it in PATHWAYLICENSEKEY. Try it in four commands: Use pip 23.1 or newer (python -m pip install -U pip first): older pip lacks the resolver improvements this dependency tree needs and can take hours.
