What We Build

What can we build with AI chatbots?

Eight categories of AI chatbot work, from web support widgets to multilingual WhatsApp deployments and voice-enabled assistants.

Reference Architecture

Which architecture do we use for AI chatbot development?

Six layers we wire together on every greenfield AI chatbot. Each layer is testable, observable, and replaceable as models and tools evolve.

Conversation

LangGraph orchestrator with intent detection, persona prompting, multi-turn memory, and explicit fallback to human handoff. Channel-aware UX across web, WhatsApp, Slack, and voice.

RAG Knowledge

Ingest of your docs, FAQs, product catalog, and APIs into Pinecone, Qdrant, Weaviate, Chroma, or pgvector. Hybrid search with reranking. Citations on every answer.

Tool Calling

Typed function calling against your CRM, helpdesk, payments, and internal APIs. Input validation, retries, per-tool cost ceilings, and structured logs of every call.

Safety

PII redaction before tokens leave your VPC. Prompt injection guards, refusal policies, rate limits, and audit trails. BAA-eligible deployments on Azure OpenAI and AWS Bedrock.

Observability

LangSmith, Langfuse, or Helicone wired for traces, cost, and latency on every conversation. KPI dashboards for CSAT, deflection rate, and cost per resolved conversation.

Evaluation

Ragas and DeepEval harness for grounding, faithfulness, and answer relevance. Regression gates on every release. Hallucination budget agreed before launch.
