Building a RAG-Powered Enterprise Knowledge Assistant with ASP.NET Core, Gemini, and PostgreSQL
Oct 27, 2026 8 min read

documents flow into a semantic retrieval layer that supplies context to a generative model, backed by an ASP.NET Core API and PostgreSQL with pgvector. Why RAG matters for enterprise knowledge Most organizations already hold the answers to their employees’ questions. They sit in policy documents, wikis, handbooks and runbooks. The hard part is putting the right paragraph in front of the person asking, in the words they used to ask. Three approaches handle this differently: Keyword search matches terms. It works when the user knows the document’s vocabulary, and struggles when they ask about “probation” and the policy says “trial period”. A plain generative API call sends the question straight to a model. The answer reads fluently, but the model only knows its training data and the prompt. It has never seen your leave policy, so it will decline or guess. Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) retrieves relevant passages first and gives them to the model together with the question. The original RAG paper describes combining a model’s parametric memory with a non-parametric memory: a dense vector index reached through a retriever. RAG adds a retrieval step between the question and the model. It can improve access to relevant information; it does not guarantee accuracy. Not every application needs RAG. If answers don’t depend on private or changing documents, a direct model call is simpler. RAG earns its place when answers must come from a specific body of documents. The proof of concept To understand the pipeline end to end, I built a small proof of concept called the Enterprise AI Knowledge Assistant. It uses ASP.NET Core for the API, Google’s Gemini API for embeddings and answer generation, and PostgreSQL with the pgvector extension, hosted on Supabase, as the vector store. The knowledge base is deliberately tiny: a text file of five company-policy statements covering annual leave, remote work, password rotation, probation and deployment approval. That is enough to see every stage of RAG working on questions like “How many days of paid leave do employees get?”. It is a learning project, so this article makes no claims about real users, accuracy or performance. What it does show is the workflow, which is the same whether the knowledge base holds five sentences or five thousand pages. The RAG workflow at a glance Two workflows share one retrieval store. Every RAG system has two phases that meet in a vector store. Phase 1, knowledge preparation (done ahead of time). Read the documents, split them into chunks, turn each chunk into a vector with an embedding model, and store the text, vector and source name. Phase 2, question answering (done per question). Turn the question into a vector with the same model, find the stored chunks closest to it, place those chunks in a prompt, and ask the generative model to answer from them. The rest of this article follows those steps in order. Step 1: Chunking, deciding what the model gets to see Embedding a whole handbook as one vector would blur dozens of topics together, and long passages inflate prompt size and cost. Documents are split into chunks small enough to be about one thing and large enough to make sense alone. The usual choices: Fixed-size splitting is simple and predictable but can cut through sentences. Paragraph-based splitting follows the author’s structure but produces uneven sizes. Overlap repeats a little text across chunk boundaries so a fact that straddles two chunks survives intact in at least one. Metadata, such as the source filename, lets you trace a chunk back to its document. The proof of concept splits on paragraphs and groups whole paragraphs into a chunk until a character limit is reached, keeping each statement intact. The demo file becomes three chunks. Each chunk is stored with its source filename. For longer, messier documents, overlap and token-aware sizing are the natural refinements. Step 2: Embeddings, turning text into vectors An embedding model maps text to a list of numbers so that texts with similar meaning end up near each other. That is what lets “how long is probation?” find “new employees have a probation period of six months” without sharing many words. An embedding does not answer anything. It only helps find candidates, and the nearest vectors can still be irrelevant. The proof of concept calls Gemini’s gemini-embedding-001 model and requests 768-dimensional vectors. According to the Gemini embeddings documentation, this model outputs 3072 dimensions by default and supports smaller sizes such as 768, and the docs also describe retrieval task types (RETRIEVAL_DOCUMENT for stored text, RETRIEVAL_QUERY for questions) that suit RAG. The same page names a newer model, gemini-embedding-2, which is worth evaluating. One rule matters above the rest: documents and questions must be embedded with the same model and dimensionality. Vectors from different models are not comparable. Step 3: Storing and searching vectors in PostgreSQL PostgreSQL with pgvector keeps chunks, metadata and embeddings in one familiar database. Each row in a document_chunks table holds the chunk text, its source file, and its embedding in a vector(768) column. Retrieval is a nearest-neighbor query. In pgvector, <=> is cosine distance, and cosine similarity is 1 - distance according to the pgvector reference. The proof of concept orders chunks by cosine distance to the question vector and keeps the top K: .Select(x => new { x.Id, x.Content, x.SourceFile, Distance = x.Embedding.CosineDistance(queryVector) }) .OrderBy(x => x.Distance) .Take(topK) Choosing K is a trade-off. Too small and the answer may miss a relevant chunk; too large and the prompt fills with noise. The demo uses a small K, which suits its small knowledge base. Without an index, pgvector performs exact nearest-neighbor search by scanning the table, which gives perfect recall (same reference). That is ideal at demo scale. For large collections, Supabase’s vector index guide generally recommends HNSW, and EDB’s pgvector documentation describes it as faster with better recall than IVFFlat, at the cost of memory and build time. That is a decision to make when the data grows, not before. Step 4: Building the augmented prompt and generating the answer This is the step that makes the pipeline RAG. The retrieved chunks are formatted into labelled blocks and placed in the prompt ahead of the question: Context: [Source 1] File: mock.txt Employees are entitled to 12 days of annual paid leave every year. Question: How many days of paid leave do employees get? A system instruction tells Gemini to answer using only the Context, not to fill gaps from general knowledge, and to reply with a fixed “not found” sentence when the context lacks the answer. Compare this with the plain call, where only the question is sent and the model answers from its training data. With retrieval, the model can answer from content it never saw in training, such as a company’s own leave policy. Changing the knowledge means updating the stored chunks, not retraining a model. The API response also returns the retrieved passages with their source file, so a reader can see what the answer was based on. How far can you trust a RAG answer? RAG improves the odds of a relevant answer. It does not guarantee a correct one. Grounding by prompt is an instruction, not a guarantee. A model told to use only the context can still misread it or lean on memory. Retrieval quality sets the ceiling. Top-K returns the closest chunks even when none is truly relevant, which is why production systems often add a similarity threshold or a “no good match” path. Returned sources are not verified citations. They show which passages the model was given, not which passage supports which claim. Evaluating a RAG system means testing retrieval and generation separately: did the right chunk come back, and did the answer stay faithful to it? Taking RAG beyond a proof of concept A few concerns move to the front when real documents and real users arrive: Permission-aware retrieval. Access control has to be applied in the retrieval query, before private content reaches the model. OWASP’s Vector and Embedding Weaknesses entry warns about weak access controls and context leakage between groups in shared vector stores. Untrusted documents. Retrieved text is input, and a document can contain instructions. OWASP’s prompt injection guidance notes that RAG does not fully prevent prompt injection and suggests constraining model behavior and clearly separating untrusted content. More sources and formats. PDFs, Word files, wikis and uploads need text extraction and a way to update or remove documents. Measurement. A set of real questions with known answers, used to tune chunking and K. Where this could help When an organization’s answers live in documents, RAG may reduce the friction of finding them: people ask in their own words and get an answer tied to passages in specific files. Those are potential benefits, not measured results. Building this proof of concept showed me that the model call is the smallest part of the system. Useful AI applications depend on how knowledge is chunked and retrieved, who is allowed to see what, and how answers are checked. How could your team make organizational knowledge easier to reach without sacrificing security or reliability?

Microsoft Scout Explained: The Next Evolution of Enterprise AI
Jul 30, 2026 8 min read

For decades, enterprise software has waited for instructions. Employees switch between applications, search for information across multiple systems, manually schedule meetings, update documentation, coordinate with teams, and spend a surprising amount of time connecting information that already exists within their organization. Artificial Intelligence improved this by helping us write emails, generate code, summarize meetings, and answer questions. Products like Microsoft 365 Copilot demonstrated how AI could become an intelligent assistant embedded into everyday work. But even the most capable assistants remain reactive. They wait for the next prompt. With Microsoft Scout, Microsoft is introducing a fundamentally different idea. Instead of building another assistant, Microsoft is taking its first step toward always-on autonomous AI agents, systems that understand context, coordinate work across applications, and execute approved tasks while remaining governed by enterprise security and user controls. Microsoft describes Scout as an "always-on personal agent" and positions it as part of a new category of Autopilots that can proactively carry work forward. Although Scout is still in its early stages, its significance extends far beyond a single product announcement. It offers a glimpse into where Microsoft believes enterprise AI is heading. Enterprise AI Is Entering a New Phase The evolution of enterprise AI can be viewed in three distinct stages. The first stage was conversation. Large Language Models transformed how we interact with information. Instead of searching through documentation or knowledge bases, we could simply ask questions and receive intelligent responses. The second stage introduced Copilots. AI became embedded inside productivity applications, helping users write documents, analyze spreadsheets, summarize meetings, generate presentations, and accelerate software development. Microsoft Scout introduces what appears to be the next logical progression. Rather than assisting with one task at a time, autonomous agents can maintain context, plan multiple steps, use different tools, and continue working in the background while requesting approval for sensitive actions. This is a significant conceptual shift. The future of enterprise AI may not be defined by better conversations but by AI systems capable of coordinating meaningful work. What Exactly Is Microsoft Scout? Microsoft Scout is an AI application that combines desktop capabilities with Microsoft 365 services to help users complete work across local resources and cloud services. According to Microsoft, it can interact with files, execute shell commands, automate browser actions, connect to Microsoft 365 data, and operate in the background for scheduled or triggered tasks, while requiring approval for sensitive operations. Depending on permissions, Scout can interact with: Microsoft Teams Outlook SharePoint OneDrive Local files Terminal environments Web browsers Microsoft 365 data External tools through the Model Context Protocol (MCP) Imagine asking Scout: "Review yesterday's deployment logs, summarize the production issues, draft an incident report, notify the DevOps team in Teams, and schedule a follow-up meeting tomorrow morning." Rather than treating these as separate requests, Scout is designed to orchestrate them as a connected workflow subject to user approvals where appropriate. That orchestration is what differentiates Scout from traditional AI assistants. Why Microsoft Scout Is More Than "Microsoft's Claude Code" One of the most common comparisons is between Microsoft Scout and Claude Code. While the comparison is understandable, it doesn't capture Microsoft's broader vision. Claude Code is designed primarily around software engineering. It understands repositories. It writes code. It debugs applications. It assists developers throughout the software development lifecycle. Scout certainly supports developers through file editing, terminal commands, and automation. However, software development is only one of its intended use cases. Microsoft positions Scout as a work agent that spans Microsoft 365, local resources, browsers, and enterprise data, not just source code. A useful way to think about the differences is this: Claude Code Microsoft Scout Developer-first Enterprise-first Repository context Organizational context Coding workflows Cross-functional workflows Engineering productivity Business productivity Software-focused Microsoft ecosystem-focused These tools aren't necessarily competitors. In many organizations, they could complement one another. Enterprise Context Is Scout's Biggest Advantage Most AI tools only understand what users explicitly tell them. Enterprise work rarely happens in one place. Information is scattered across: Emails Teams conversations SharePoint libraries OneDrive files Meeting invitations Calendars Project documentation Scout is designed to connect these pieces into a more complete picture of work, within the permissions already defined by Microsoft 365. Microsoft says it can access Teams, Outlook, SharePoint, OneDrive, chats, email, calendars, and contacts to stay grounded in a user's workflow. That richer context has the potential to make AI far more useful than isolated chat interactions. From AI Assistance to AI Action Perhaps the most significant change Scout introduces is its ability to move beyond recommendations. According to Microsoft, Scout can: Create and edit files Execute shell commands Control browsers using Playwright Manage Microsoft 365 tasks Work autonomously in the background Launch specialized sub-agents for certain complex tasks Remember user preferences across conversations Importantly, Microsoft emphasizes that users remain in control through granular permissions and approval flows for sensitive actions. Governance Isn't an Afterthought Autonomous AI cannot succeed in enterprises without trust. Microsoft appears to recognize this from the outset. Scout is designed to operate within existing enterprise identity, access, and governance frameworks. Microsoft states that Scout uses governed Microsoft Entra identities and supports detailed permissions for files, shell access, browser automation, and Microsoft 365 resources. This governance-first approach is likely to be one of Scout's strongest differentiators for enterprise adoption. Why This Matters for Business Leaders The most important question isn't what Scout can do today. It's what Microsoft's direction tells us about tomorrow. Enterprise software is gradually moving toward intelligent systems that don't simply answer questions but help complete business processes. Consider a few possibilities: A project manager receives an automatically prepared status report before the weekly review. A sales executive gets a customer briefing generated from emails, meetings, CRM data, and recent documents. A software engineering team automates incident documentation immediately after a deployment. An HR department streamlines onboarding by coordinating documentation, approvals, and internal knowledge. These scenarios aren't about replacing people. They're about reducing coordination overhead so teams can focus on higher-value work. What Organizations Should Do Today Even though Scout is still evolving, organizations can begin preparing now. Some practical steps include: Strengthening Microsoft 365 governance. Organizing enterprise knowledge. Improving documentation quality. Reviewing access permissions. Identifying repetitive workflows. Standardizing business processes. Establishing clear AI governance policies. The organizations that benefit most from autonomous AI won't simply have access to better models. They'll have better data, better governance, and better operational discipline. The MagnusMinds Perspective At MagnusMinds, we've always believed that successful technology adoption is about more than implementing new tools; it's about understanding where the technology is heading and helping businesses prepare for that future. Over the years, we've helped organizations modernize applications with .NET, build scalable cloud solutions on Azure, unlock insights through Microsoft Fabric and Power BI, streamline operations with the Power Platform, and develop AI-driven solutions tailored to real business needs. Microsoft Scout represents another important milestone in Microsoft's AI journey. While the platform is still evolving, our engineering team has already begun exploring how autonomous AI agents could enhance software development workflows, Microsoft 365 collaboration, enterprise knowledge management, and intelligent business automation. Our goal isn't simply to adopt the latest technology; it's to understand how it can solve meaningful business problems responsibly, securely, and at scale. As Microsoft's AI ecosystem continues to evolve, we're committed to helping our clients navigate that journey with clarity, practical guidance, and solutions that create measurable business value. Final Thoughts Every major shift in enterprise technology begins with a change in mindset. Cloud computing changed where applications run. Copilot changed how people interact with software. Autonomous AI agents may change how work itself gets done. Microsoft Scout should not be viewed simply as another AI product or as Microsoft's equivalent of a coding assistant. Instead, it represents Microsoft's vision for a future where AI doesn't just assist people; it collaborates with them by understanding context, coordinating work, and executing approved actions across the enterprise. Whether Scout becomes the defining enterprise AI platform remains to be seen. But one thing is already clear. The conversation is no longer just about smarter AI. It's about AI that can responsibly move work forward. For organizations invested in the Microsoft ecosystem, now is the time to understand that shift, not because every capability is available today, but because the foundations of tomorrow's workplace are being laid today. Let's Discuss Your AI Journey Every organization's AI journey is different. Whether you're evaluating Microsoft Scout, implementing Microsoft 365 Copilot, modernizing legacy applications, or building AI-powered business solutions, having the right strategy is just as important as choosing the right technology. Our team at MagnusMinds works with organizations to design, build, and optimize solutions across the Microsoft ecosystem. Have a question or want to explore what's possible? We'd love to connect. Author's Note Since Microsoft Scout is a rapidly evolving product, this article reflects Microsoft's public announcements and documentation available at the time of writing, along with our analysis of its potential implications for enterprise AI. As new capabilities become generally available, we expect the platform and the opportunities it presents to continue evolving.
