Building An Insights AI Architecture
Real Story Group, Tuesday, April 7th, 2026
Some enterprises that Real Story Group advises are finally moving beyond the pilot stage with Agent AI. They have real setups running in production, or they're getting very close. But the main issue stalling these rollouts is almost always architectural rather than related to the underlying LLM or prompt engineering.
After my post on the context layer , the most common question I got was asking where that layer actually sits in the broader stack. Many teams are struggling to figure out the division of labor. Many often jump straight to the agent-runtime and start tweaking prompts. On the other hand, the middle layer, i.e., the plumbing that should actually be preparing the evidence, is either thin or completely missing.
