Beyond Search: How Structured Ontology Teaches AI Why

AI agents using vector search excel at answering 'what' questions but fail on 'why' questions, leading to technically correct but strategically wrong decisions. The core issue: reasoning is rarely stored as discrete facts but scattered across meeting notes and design documents. A structured ontology that explicitly maps reasoning chains from foundational beliefs through goals to operations solves this, enabling agents to achieve 100% recall on reasoning questions.
