LlamaIndex – The Leading Data Framework for RAG and AI Agents | Quasa.io

#Quasa #QUA #LlamaIndex

LlamaIndex is an open-source data framework plus LlamaCloud: parse, extract, classify, split, and index documents for RAG and agents. The Python/TS library is free. Cloud is credits. Official plans: Free 10,000 credits a month; Starter $50 with 40,000; Pro $500 with 400,000 and Slack; Enterprise custom. Credits cost $1.25 per 1,000. Fast parse is 1 credit a page; agentic plus is 45; some invoice presets hit 90. Cached re-parses can be free. LiteParse is local OSS with no tokens. It is not ChatGPT and not a finished knowledge base. Burn Free on your ugliest PDF. Buy Starter when 10K dies mid-week. Pro when concurrency and support matter.
