Build an AI Agent in 5' with MindsDB

Dec 8, 2025

Jonny Daenen & Tarik Jamoulle

Build a RAG-based AI agent with MindsDB. Turn files and SaaS data into a semantic knowledge base and query everything with natural language.

In this Technical Exploration, Jonny and Tarik show how to build a fully functioning RAG-based AI agent using MindsDB, turning internal data from Postgres, Slack, or Google Drive into a queryable knowledge base powered by semantic search.

You’ll see how to:

  • Convert internal documents into a semantic knowledge base

  • Make Google Drive & Slack data queryable in minutes

  • Build a custom AI Agent on top of your knowledge bases

  • Run MindsDB locally with Docker

  • Use SQL to configure agents, connectors, and knowledge bases

  • Expose your agent through a simple API for app integration

We also touch on:

  • Chunking & embedding strategies

  • Local vs. cloud LLMs

  • How MindsDB compares to full ETL approaches
