Practical overview

When it fits

Use Autoflow when a project needs a self-hosted Graph RAG foundation that connects website content, vector storage, conversational search and an embeddable interface.

Who it is for

  • Teams building documentation chatbots
  • Product teams needing embedded conversational support search
  • Organizations creating self-hosted internal research portals
  • Developers exploring knowledge graphs with vector retrieval

Documented uses

  • Crawl official and documentation websites through sitemap URL scraping.
  • Store chat history, vectors, JSON data and analytics in TiDB Vector.
  • Provide a conversational search interface for knowledge-base questions.
  • Embed a conversational search window into a product website.
  • Deploy a website-crawling RAG application through Docker Compose.

Requirements & limits

The repository is public, active and open source under the Apache-2.0 license. Docker Compose deployment is documented with a requirement of 4 CPU cores and 8GB RAM.

  • TiDB Vector is the documented storage layer for chat history, vectors, JSON and analytics.
  • The crawler uses sitemap URL scraping for official and documentation sites.
  • The JavaScript embedding feature is explicitly documented.
  • The project is described as being in the early stages of development.
  • The application uses TypeScript with LlamaIndex and DSPy in its retrieval and foundation-model workflow.

Check current requirements in the official documentation. Source-based guidance does not mean OpenViST has run or independently tested this project.
