Siraaj

An enterprise AI platform that serves as your organization's intelligent assistant, seamlessly connecting to company documents, applications, and people. Siraaj provides a sophisticated chat interface that integrates with any LLM of your choice while maintaining synchronized knowledge and access controls across workplace tools. Since you control the deployment, your user data and conversations remain entirely under your organization's control. The platform combines the power of large language models with your team's unique knowledge, effectively creating a subject matter expert that understands your specific business context.

Imagine having an AI assistant that can answer questions like "A customer wants feature X, is this already supported?" or "Where's the pull request for feature Y?" by accessing your team's collective knowledge across Slack conversations, Google Drive documents, Confluence pages, and code repositories.

Problem Statement

Organizations face a fundamental challenge in the modern workplace: critical knowledge exists in scattered silos across multiple platforms, making it nearly impossible for teams to access the collective intelligence they need to make informed decisions. Employees waste countless hours searching through disconnected systems like Slack channels, Google Drive folders, Confluence spaces, and various databases, often recreating work that colleagues have already completed. Traditional search tools fall short because they rely on keyword matching rather than understanding context and meaning.

This fragmentation creates several cascading problems. Decision-making becomes slower as teams struggle to locate relevant precedents and documentation. New team members face extended onboarding periods because institutional knowledge isn't easily discoverable. Customer support teams cannot quickly access the technical information needed to resolve issues effectively. Project teams duplicate efforts because they cannot easily find similar work completed by other departments.

Siraaj addresses these challenges by creating a unified knowledge ecosystem where artificial intelligence can understand, synthesize, and provide contextual answers from your organization's collective information. Rather than replacing existing tools, Siraaj acts as an intelligent layer that connects and makes sense of information across all your workplace systems while maintaining the security boundaries and access controls that protect sensitive information.

Getting Started

Prerequisites

Understanding Siraaj's architecture helps you appreciate why these prerequisites matter. The platform operates as a distributed system where each component serves a specific purpose in the knowledge management pipeline.

• Node.js (v20+) - Powers the Next.js frontend interface
• Docker (v24.0.2+) - Orchestrates the microservices architecture
• Docker Compose - Manages the multi-container deployment

Project Setup

Clone the Repository

git clone https://github.com/rihal-om/siraaj.git
cd siraaj

Running the Application Locally

There are 2 options for running the application locally, so refer to this document for details.

Tech Stack

Understanding the technology choices helps you appreciate how Siraaj delivers enterprise-grade knowledge management capabilities. Each component serves a specific purpose in creating a reliable, scalable, and secure platform that can handle the complex requirements of organizational knowledge management.

Comprehensive Workplace Connectors

The power of Siraaj lies in its ability to connect with virtually every tool your organization uses to create, store, and share knowledge. Rather than forcing teams to change their existing workflows, Siraaj integrates seamlessly with established systems to create a unified knowledge layer. The platform efficiently monitors and pulls the latest changes from communication platforms like Slack for capturing conversational knowledge and real-time discussions. Development teams benefit from GitHub integration that provides access to code repositories, documentation, and issue tracking information.

Document management systems receive comprehensive support through connectors for Google Drive, SharePoint, and local file systems, ensuring that both cloud-based and on-premise document repositories become searchable through the unified interface. Knowledge management platforms including Confluence, Notion, Slab, Document360, and Bookstack integrate seamlessly to make structured organizational knowledge instantly accessible.

Project management and workflow tools connect through specialized integrations with Jira for development tracking, Linear for modern project management, Productboard for feature planning, and similar platforms that capture decision-making processes and project evolution. Customer-facing systems integrate through connectors for Zendesk customer support platforms, HubSpot customer relationship management, Gong sales conversation intelligence, and Gmail communication history.

The platform also supports integration with specialized knowledge systems including Guru for verified company information, Bookstack for technical documentation, and even website crawling capabilities for public-facing information that teams reference regularly. This comprehensive connector ecosystem means that regardless of your organization's specific tool choices, Siraaj can likely integrate with your existing knowledge infrastructure without requiring disruptive migrations or workflow changes.

Project Team

The diverse expertise of our team reflects the complex challenges Siraaj addresses in enterprise knowledge management.

Deployment Flexibility and Scalability

One of Siraaj's most significant advantages lies in its deployment flexibility, which accommodates organizations with vastly different technical requirements, security constraints, and operational scales. This flexibility ensures that teams can implement effective knowledge management solutions regardless of their infrastructure preferences or organizational policies.

Local Development and Evaluation capabilities allow teams to run the complete Siraaj platform on individual laptops or workstations. This approach proves invaluable for technical evaluation, demonstration purposes, and small team pilots. The entire system, including all microservices, databases, and AI components, can operate effectively on modest hardware resources, enabling thorough testing before committing to larger deployment initiatives.

On-Premise Enterprise Deployment addresses the needs of organizations with strict data sovereignty requirements or existing infrastructure investments. The containerized architecture ensures consistent behavior whether deployed on a single virtual machine or distributed across multiple servers within corporate data centers. This deployment model provides complete control over data location, network access, and integration with existing enterprise systems while maintaining the full functionality of cloud-based alternatives.

The deployment documentation provides comprehensive guidance for each scenario, including infrastructure requirements, security considerations, and optimization strategies that help organizations achieve optimal performance while maintaining their specific compliance and operational requirements.

Development Workflow

Local Development

For frontend development, you can run the Next.js development server independently while connecting to the containerized backend services. This approach provides fast refresh capabilities while maintaining access to the full platform functionality.

Testing Strategy

The platform includes end-to-end testing with Playwright, ensuring the complete user experience works correctly across different scenarios. The modular architecture also supports unit testing of individual services.

Deployment Considerations

The Docker Compose setup is designed for both development and production use. Environment variables control feature flags and integrations, allowing you to customize the platform for different deployment contexts.
