Ctrl + F(uture) – AI Workshop Berlin

Ask, don't search – extracting knowledge from documents with Agentic RAG and LLMs

An AI system that answers a direct question – precisely, instantly, drawn from hundreds of documents, manuals, or reports. You ask a question, you get a precise answer. With Agentic RAG, that’s exactly what you’ll build.

At Ctrl + F(uture), participants spend a full day developing a working AI application that uses Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) and Large Language Models (LLMs) to retrieve and present knowledge intelligently. Not just understanding how the technology works – but building it from scratch.

What to Expect

The workshop is hands-on from start to finish. Theory is kept to what’s needed to hit the ground running. From the first line of code to a working demo – participants build a real Agentic RAG system that understands documents and answers questions with precision.

  • Agentic RAG fundamentals – How RAG systems are structured, where AI agents deliver advantages over traditional search, and how they make intelligent retrieval decisions
  • LLMs in practice – How to integrate Large Language Models meaningfully into an application
  • Building document pipelines – Ingestion, chunking, embedding, and retrieval step by step
  • Agentic logic – How an AI agent decides autonomously which information to retrieve and how to combine it
  • Your own demo – By the end of the day, a working system ready to develop further

What to bring: A laptop with Python set up and basic Python knowledge. We’ll cover the rest.

Real Projects, Real Engineers

itestra has been building software for large enterprises for over 20 years – banks, insurers, industrial companies. Agentic Engineering is one of our core services: we build AI systems that work in enterprise environments and deliver measurable results. The numbers speak for themselves – 90+ enterprise clients, 200,000+ person-days delivered.

At the workshop, participants learn from engineers who develop and deploy Agentic RAG systems on real client projects. Practical insights and real experience – the chance to get to know itestra and how we work, and get your questions answered by practitioners who do this every day.
