Knowledge Graphs

Definition

Knowledge graphs are structured maps of entities, relationships, attributes, and facts that help systems understand how information connects.

A knowledge graph gives AI systems a more explicit view of the business world: people, products, services, locations, customers, offers, competitors, claims, processes, and relationships between them. It helps reduce ambiguity and improves entity resolution.

For agent systems, knowledge graphs can make retrieval and reasoning stronger. Instead of treating all content as loose text, the system can understand that a product belongs to a service line, a contact belongs to an account, a location serves a market, or a claim requires evidence.
