Summary

Cogninest AI created a Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) chatbot tailored for students entering the Consumer Packaged Goods (CPG) industry.This AI assistant offers personalized, context rich guidance grounded in domain specific knowledge curated by a CPG industry expert.By addressing challenges related to unstructured data, response accuracy, and integration of non textual sources, the solution delivers actionable insights to support entrepreneurial growth.

Client Overview

The client is an experienced CPG industry expert dedicated to mentoring students pursuing entrepreneurial ventures within the sector.They provided an extensive dataset comprising lecture notes, presentations, books, blogs, YouTube videos, and other relevant resources to develop a comprehensive AI assistant.

The Challenge

Unstructured and Diverse Knowledge Sources: The dataset included various formats, making it challenging to design a universal ingestion pipeline.
Optimizing Document Chunking: Initial chunking strategies disrupted semantic coherence, leading to irrelevant chatbot responses.
Improving LLM Response Accuracy: Ensuring contextually relevant and accurate responses was critical for user trust.
Handling Non-Text Sources: Incorporating dynamic content like blogs and YouTube videos required robust processing capabilities.

The Solution

Structured Data Ingestion: Collaborated with the client to categorize and preprocess the dataset, storing content in ChromaDB for efficient retrieval.
Optimized Chunking Strategy: Implemented a token-based approach with 750-token chunks to preserve semantic integrity.
Admin Panel for Knowledge Management: Developed an interface allowing admins to manage content, including automated ingestion of blogs and YouTube videos.
Feedback Loop for Continuous Improvement: Enabled users to flag responses, allowing admins to review and update answers, enhancing future interactions.

Results & Impact

Enhanced Retrieval Accuracy: Token-based chunking improved the relevance of chatbot responses.
Efficient Content Management: Admin panel streamlined the process of updating and enriching the knowledge base.
Continuous Improvement: Feedback loop ensured the chatbot evolved based on user interactions.
Comprehensive Support: Integration of various content types provided users with a holistic learning experience.
