# LASSX vs Open WebUI RAG · LASSX

Plain-language comparison: same RAG skeleton (ingest → chunk → embed → retrieve → generate), different job — governed knowledge program vs personal local notebook.

**Takeaway:** Open WebUI teaches a local AI to read your PDFs; LASSX builds a governed knowledge program safe enough for operators who cannot outsource control.

- Same RAG skeleton; different trust and governance model
- Sovereign supply chain and upgrade path vs DIY stack
- Built-in compliance, audit, and assessor evidence
- Policy and CUI controls at ingest/retrieval
- Production-grade backup, restore, multi-user isolation, and portability

Tags: policy-aware RAG, CUI-aware ingest, org collections, citations
