[Project Submission] DocuChat AI #66
Description
🌍 Problem Statement
In today’s information-heavy world, extracting useful insights from long or complex documents like research papers, legal contracts, or internal PDFs is time-consuming and often inefficient. Users need an intuitive way to converse with their documents, ask follow-up questions, and get precise answers — just like chatting with a human expert.
This solution addresses:
Societal needs like making legal and healthcare documents more accessible
Educational needs by enabling students to interact with study materials
Enterprise productivity by simplifying access to internal manuals and policies
🛠 Your Solution
To solve this problem, I have customized an Azure Developer CLI (azd) template for AI chat interfaces. Here's how:
Template Used: ai-chat-app or similar conversational AI base template provided by Azure.
Modifications and Extensions:
Integrated RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) using document embedding and vector stores to enable document-based Q&A.
Added support for PDF/document upload, automatic parsing, chunking, and embedding.
Implemented conversational memory to track chat history and enable follow-up questions with contextual continuity.
Enhanced the UI for seamless file upload and real-time AI chat experience.
Why It Matters:
Allows users to chat with any document in natural language.
Reduces time spent reading and interpreting lengthy documents.
Ensures context-aware conversations that simulate talking to an expert.
This approach is relevant because it combines semantic search, LLMs, and memory in a single user-friendly solution with real-world applications across industries.
