- [Indexing](https://percolation-labs.gitbook.io/percolation-labs/going-multimodal/indexing.md): Indexing means combining the benefits of each modality when ingesting and querying data. Learn how this is achieved in Percolate
- [Percolating Python-first](https://percolation-labs.gitbook.io/percolation-labs/recipes/percolating-python-first.md): Most of the agentic frameworks in use today are Python-based. Many of them rely heavily on Pydantic. In this section we take a look at how Percolate and Python work together.
- [Percolating SQL-first](https://percolation-labs.gitbook.io/percolation-labs/recipes/percolating-sql-first.md): The real power of Percolate is its native SQL interface and rich integration with data and data governance. In this section we dive into the SQL functions that can be used to build agentic AI.
