Rasa NLU | Structured Intent Recognition with LLM Flexibility
NLU that evolves with you
Start with structured, intent-based understanding and expand with LLM-powered flexibility when your use cases demand more.
Understand users on your terms
Understand users on your terms.
Get full control over how your agents interpret messages—so you can tailor intent and entity recognition to your use case, not someone else’s defaults.
- Train models with your own domain-specific data for high accuracy
- Choose how LLMs participate in comprehension: first-pass understanding, fallback, or hybrid
- Customize and optimize your NLU pipeline with modular components for accuracy, control, and cost efficiency
Extend NLU precision with LLM flexibility
Rasa is all about optionality. Keep NLU where it is working well, and opt for language models when you need more powerful dialogue understanding.
- Classify intent with structured NLU, and fall back to LLMs only when confidence is low
- Use LLMs to improve conversational quality without giving up control over logic
- Let Flows drive behavior, while LLMs support phrasing, repair, and natural understanding
Build on the most battle-tested NLU in conversational AI
Rasa has led NLU innovation for nearly a decade with the research, tools, and real-world experience to prove it.
