  3. Enhance RAG Retrieval Success by 67% using Contextual Retrieval with Portkey's AI Gateway

    Anthropic recently released a guide on Contextual Retrieval, a method that cuts RAG retrieval failures by up to 67%.

    🔥We've adapted this powerful technique to work with Portkey's AI Gateway.

    Now you can easily implement Contextual Retrieval across 250+ language models with just one interface.

    Key benefits of Portkey's integration:

    1. Access to multiple language models through a single API
    2. Simplified key management process
    3. Effortless switching between providers

  4. OpenAI o1-preview and o1-mini on Portkey

    New Feature

    OpenAI's new o1-preview and o1-mini models are supported on Portkey.

    Compared to gpt-4o, these models reflect for a long time, and are able to answer questions like "how many r's in the word strawberry?", "how many words in your output?" exceptionally well.

    o1 models work significatly better on maths, science, puzzle solving, and coding tasks.

     

    Try them on Portkey:
