From 7 Days to 2 Minutes: Automating Workflows with Knowledge Graphs

Are you still relying on OCR for your enterprise AI? You're losing critical context.

In this episode, Anaiya Raisinghani (Sr. Tech. Evangelist, AI Startups & Ventures at MongoDB) sits down with Adityavardhan Agrawal, Co-Founder and CEO of Morphik. They dive deep into how Morphik is helping developers and enterprises understand complex, unstructured data and automate high-leverage workflows.

Adi breaks down the limitations of standard RAG pipelines and reveals why they turned to Vision Language Models (VLMs) to process complex documents like architectural floorplans.

What you’ll learn in this episode:

• The OCR Trap: Why text extraction is inherently lossy for complex documents and how VLMs generate better embeddings.

• The RAG Misconception: Why getting high-quality context requires much more than just plain vector search.

• Database Architecture: Why Morphik hit the limits of Postgres/JSONB for dynamic datasets and how migrating to MongoDB Atlas simplified their multi-tenancy and querying.

• Massive ROI: How one manufacturing customer used Morphik to slash their quote generation time from 7 days to under 2 minutes.

• The Future of Knowledge: Building self-healing, self-updating data layers that leverage MQL.
