Show HN: RAGGuard – Permission-aware retrieval for RAG applications

2 points

5 months ago

I built RAGGuard because most RAG systems have a security gap: they filter documents after retrieval, meaning unauthorized data has already hit the retrieval layer. RAGGuard filters during vector search at the database level.

- Works with 14 vector DBs (Qdrant, ChromaDB, Pinecone, pgvector, etc.) - Integrates with existing auth (OPA, Cerbos, OpenFGA, custom RBAC) - Drop-in replacement for LangChain/LlamaIndex retrievers

Would appreciate any feedback on the approach or API design.
