GraphRAG based LLM Document Compliance with Knowledge Graphs and Vector Embeddings

DocFlow addresses the challenge of auditing thousands of pages of regulatory documents. It leverages GraphRAG and OpenAI for hybrid context retrieval using Knowledge Graphs (Neo4J), Vector Embeddings, and SQL databases.

The frontend serves as a SaaS platform for organizations to edit numerous documents and manage multiple levels of approvals within and across cross-functional teams, automated via custom workflows.

NOTE: No Agentic or High-Level Framework like LangChain, LangGraph, etc has been used in this project for maximum learning purposes.

🏗️ Architecture

• Frontend: Next.js application with modern UI/UX
• Backend: FastAPI service with Python
• Database: Neo4j graph database
• LLM: OpenAI
• RAG - Semantic Chunking + Similarity, BART Summarization

🚀 Running Instructions

1. Start Neo4j (Database)

# Start Neo4j using docker-compose
docker-compose up neo4j

Access Neo4j Browser at http://localhost:7474

• Username: neo4j
• Password: mypassword123

2. Setup Backend (FastAPI)

# Create and activate virtual environment
cd Backend
python -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate  # On Windows: venv\Scripts\activate

# Install dependencies
pip install -r requirements.txt

# Download spaCy model
python -m spacy download en_core_web_lg

# Setup environment
cp .env.example .env
# Edit .env and add your OpenAI API key

# Start the server
uvicorn app.main:app --reload --port 8000

Backend API will be available at http://localhost:8000 Backend API endpoints will be available at http://localhost:8000/docs

3. Setup Frontend (Next.js)

# Install dependencies
cd Frontend
npm install

# Run initial setup (for SQLite database)
npm run setup

# Start development server
npm run dev

Frontend will be available at http://localhost:3000
