We expected the Knowledge Graph to improve accuracy quickly, but the implementation phase is taking much longer than anticipated. A lot of time is being spent defining entities and relationships. Is this normal, or are we doing something wrong?

This is normal for graph-based systems. Unlike vector-based retrieval, Knowledge Graphs require intentional modeling of how information connects. The upfront investment is higher because accuracy depends on structure. Rushing this phase often leads to poor results later.
The time spent upfront is essentially building institutional memory into the system. While it slows initial deployment, it reduces ambiguity and errors once the system is in production.
