🧠 IAToolkit — Open-Source Framework for Real-World AI Assistants

Build private, production-grade AI assistants that run entirely inside your environment and speak the language of your business.

IAToolkit is not a demo wrapper or a prompt playground — it is a full architecture for implementing intelligent systems that combine LLMs, SQL data, internal documents, tools, workflows, and multi-tenant business logic.

🚀 Why IAToolkit?

Modern AI development is fragmented:
LangChain handles chains, LlamaIndex handles documents, your backend handles SQL, your frontend handles chats, and your devs glue everything together.

IAToolkit brings all of this into one unified, production-ready framework.

It focuses on:

• real-world data (SQL + documents)
• real workflows (LLM tools + python services)
• real multi-tenant architecture (1 company → many companies)
• real constraints (security, reproducibility, governance)
• real deployment (your servers, your infrastructure)

IAToolkit lets you build the assistant that your organization needs — not a generic chatbot.

🧩 Architecture in a Nutshell

IAToolkit is a structured, layered framework:

Interfaces (Web & API) ↓ Intelligence Layer (prompts, tools, SQL orchestration, RAG) ↓ Execution Layer (services, workflows, validation) ↓ Data Access (SQLAlchemy, connectors) ↓ Company Modules (company.yaml + custom tools)

✔ Interfaces

Chat UI, REST API, auth, sessions, JSON/HTML responses.

✔ Intelligence Layer

Core logic: prompt rendering, SQL orchestration, RAG, LLM tool dispatching.

✔ Execution Layer

Python services that implement real workflows: querying data, generating reports, retrieving documents, executing business logic.

✔ Data Access

A clean repository pattern using SQLAlchemy.

✔ Company Modules

Each company has:

• its own company.yaml
• its own prompts
• its own tools
• its own services
• its own vector store & SQL context

This modularity allows true multi-tenancy.

🔌 Connect to Anything

IAToolkit integrates naturally with:

• SQL databases (PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQL Server, etc.)
• Document retrieval (PDF, text, embeddings)
• External APIs
• Internal microservices
• Custom Python tools

It also includes a production-grade RAG pipeline, combining:

• embeddings
• chunking
• hybrid search
• SQL queries + document retrieval
• tool execution

Everything orchestrated through the Intelligence Layer.

🏢 Multi-Tenant Architecture

A single installation of IAToolkit can power assistants for multiple companies, departments, or customers.

companies/
    company_a
    company_b
    company_c

Each Company is fully isolated:

• prompts
• tools
• credentials
• documents
• SQL contexts
• business rules

This makes IAToolkit ideal for SaaS products, agencies, consultancies, and organizations with multiple business units.

🆓 Community Edition vs Enterprise Edition

IAToolkit follows a modern open-core model:

🟦 Community Edition (MIT License)

• Full Open-Source Core
• SQL + Basic RAG
• One Company
• Custom Python tools
• Self-managed deployment

Perfect for developers, small teams, single-business use cases, and experimentation.

🟥 Enterprise Edition (Commercial License)

• Unlimited Companies (multi-tenant)
• Advanced RAG pipelines
• External connectors (S3, APIs, email)
• SSO, auditing, access controls
• Priority support & continuous updates
• Activation via License Key

👉 Licensing information:

• Community Edition (MIT)
• Enterprise License

🧩 Who Is IAToolkit For?

• Companies building internal “ChatGPT for the business”
• SaaS products adding AI assistants for multiple customers
• AI teams that need reproducible prompts and controlled tools
• Developers who want real workflows, not toy demos
• Organizations requiring privacy, security, and self-hosting
• Teams working with SQL-heavy business logic
• Consultancies deploying AI for multiple clients

---

⭐ Key Differentiators

IAToolkit stands apart from frameworks like LangChain or LlamaIndex because it:

• prioritizes architecture-first design, not chains or wrappers
• supports multi-company out of the box
• integrates SQL, RAG, and tools into a single intelligence layer
• keeps business logic isolated inside Company modules
• runs entirely on your own infrastructure
• ships with a full web chat, API, and admin interface
• is built for production, not prototypes
