Building smarter AI apps with GraphRAG: A practical guide

Need more context-aware responses from your LLM-powered apps?Join us for the next SurrealDB meetup in London, where we'll show you how to combine graph and vector search to build smarter GenAI features — without wrangling multiple databases or frameworks.

We’ll walk through a complete, working example: a chatbot that uses SurrealDB + LangChain to to analyse symptoms and recommend where who to schedule an appointment with based on both semantic similarity and structured graph relationships.

In this session, you’ll learn how to:

• Set up SurrealDB as both a graph and vector store — in a single system
• Use LangChain to query structured knowledge alongside embeddings
• Chain together document ingestion, graph construction, and AI-driven Q&A
• Deploy an architecture that scales from prototype to production

Who’s this for?

This session is designed for developers and engineers who want to build AI features that go beyond basic vector search. If you’re already comfortable coding in Python and want to explore LLM integration, graph reasoning, and real-world deployment patterns — without unnecessary complexity — this talk will give you the tools and examples to get started fast.

Drinks and networking after the talk — we hope to see you there!

New to SurrealDB?

SurrealDB is a scalable multi-model database that allows users and developers to focus on building their applications rather than architecting and managing their infrastructure. SurrealDB allows users to use schema-less and schema-full data patterns effortlessly, with the ability to operate like a relational database with SQL (albeit without the JOINs), but with the same advanced functionality as the best NoSQL document and graph databases. SurrealDB was designed to enable users to build modern real-time applications effortlessly - with the ability to query right from Chrome, Edge, or Safari, removing the need for complicated database backends and APIs - with advanced row-by-row security and access permissions handled right within the database itself.
