    • Has many website_content, unanswered_questions

Website_content Table

  • Columns:
    • id: Primary key
    • website_id: Foreign key
    • page_url: Source URL
    • content: Extracted text
    • embedding: JSON string of vector
    • created_at: Timestamp
  • Purpose: Stores scraped content and embeddings for similarity search

Chat_sessions Table

  • Columns:
    • id: Primary key
    • website_id: Foreign key
    • visitor_name, visitor_email: Contact info
    • is_active: Session status
    • needs_attention: Flag for owner review

    • created_at, resolved_at: Timestamps
  • Purpose: Track questions AI couldn't answer confidently

Vector Storage (FAISS)

  • Location: server/vector_db/ directory
  • How it works:
    1. Content is converted to embeddings (vectors)
    2. FAISS index stores vectors for fast similarity search
    3. Query embedding compared to stored vectors
    4. Most similar content retrieved
  • Persistence: Index saved to disk, loaded on startup

๐Ÿค– AI Engine

Rule-based AI

  • Location: server/app/services/ai_engine.py
  • How it works:
    1. Extract keywords from user question
    2. Search for similar content in vector database
    3. Generate response based on matched content
    4. Apply tone/personality based on website settings
  • Fallback: If confidence < 0.3, escalate to owner

Embeddings Generation

  • Method: Semantic Vector Embeddings
  • Model: all-MiniLM-L6-v2 via Sentence-Transformers
  • Process:
    1. Text is preprocessed and tokenized
    2. 384-dimensional dense vectors are generated
    3. Vectors capture semantic meaning, not just keyword frequency
  • Storage: Vectors stored in FAISS (IndexHNSWFlat) and cached in embeddings_cache.pkl

Hybrid Retrieval Architecture

  • Algorithm: BM25 + FAISS (Semantic) + Rule-based Boosting
  • Process:
    1. Keyword Match: BM25Okapi calculates term-frequency relevance (modern TF-IDF successor)
    2. Semantic Match: FAISS performs ultra-fast HNSW similarity search on dense vectors
    3. Re-Ranking: Cross-Encoders (ms-marco-MiniLM-L-6-v2) re-evaluate top candidates for precision
    4. Score Fusion: Weights (e.g., 60% Semantic / 25% Keyword / 15% Rules) combine scores for final ranking
  • Threshold: Confidence scores dynamically adjusted based on query intent and industry matching

Context-aware Responses

  • Implementation: Combines multiple relevant content pieces
  • Process:
    1. Find top 3 similar content pieces
    2. Combine context
    3. Generate coherent response
    4. Apply website tone
  • Personalization: Uses website industry and tone settings

Owner Escalation Logic

  • Trigger: Confidence score < 0.3
  • Actions:
    1. Mark session as needs_attention
    2. Create unanswered_question record
    3. Send email notification to owner
    4. Provide fallback response to visitor
  • Dashboard: Owner sees flagged questions in Unanswered Questions page

Phase 3: Persistent Memory Architecture ๐Ÿง 

  • Database Models:

    • LeadProfile (server/app/models/lead.py):
      • Stores cross-session patient data per email
      • Fields: health_summary, known_conditions, total_sessions, last_interaction
      • One-to-many relationship with ChatSession via email
    • SessionSummary (server/app/models/chat_session.py):
      • AI-generated summary for each session
      • Fields: summary_text, extracted_symptoms, triage_result, recommended_actions
      • One-to-one relationship with ChatSession
  • Session Analyzer (server/app/services/session_analyzer.py):

    • Trigger: Background task every 5 messages or on escalation
    • Process:
      1. Fetches complete session conversation
      2. Calls Gemini with structured prompt to extract JSON
      3. Creates/updates SessionSummary record
      4. Syncs insights to persistent LeadProfile
      5. Merges unique symptoms into known_conditions
    • Smart Storage: Keeps last 10 session summaries to prevent database bloat
  • Memory-Aware Response Flow:

    1. AIEngine (server/app/services/ai_engine.py):
      • Loads LeadProfile by visitor_email
      • Passes persistent_history to MedicalOrchestrator
    2. MedicalOrchestrator (server/app/services/medical_orchestrator.py):
      • _rebuild_context() seeds PatientContext from persistent history
      • Extracts age via regex: Age:\s?(\d+) or (\d+)\s?-year-old
      • Pre-populates historical conditions into context
    3. Result: Returning patients skip redundant demographic questions
  • Admin CRM API (server/app/api/leads.py):

    • GET /api/leads/profiles: List all patient profiles with summaries
    • GET /api/leads/profile/{email}: Detailed timeline with per-session summaries
    • Use Case: Admin reviews patient journey before manual intervention

Chat Dataset & Knowledge Bases

  • Sourced Data: Custom dataset (chat_dataset.json) containing common conversational patterns, greetings, and fallback responses.
  • Advanced Training: advanced_chat_dataset.py includes industry-specific scenarios (E-commerce, Healthcare, Real Estate, SaaS) and multi-turn conversation flows.
  • Specialized Knowledge Bases (Integrated):
    • CLINC150: 22,500 training examples for intent classification (150 categories).

Medical & Specialized Knowledge Bases

  • Mega Dataset: 12,465+ high-quality medical records from curated sources:
    • MedQuAD (2,572 Q&A): Official NIH/NLM information on 2,500+ conditions.

๐ŸŒ Web Scraping

BeautifulSoup HTML Parsing

  • Location: server/app/services/scraper.py
  • Process:
    1. Fetch HTML with requests library
    2. Parse with BeautifulSoup
    3. Extract text from relevant tags (p, h1-h6, li, etc.)
    4. Clean and normalize text
  • Filtering: Removes scripts, styles, navigation elements

Sitemap Parsing

  • How it works:
    1. Fetch /sitemap.xml from website
    2. Parse XML to extract all URLs
    3. Filter for relevant pages (exclude images, PDFs)
    4. Return list of URLs to scrape
  • Fallback: If no sitemap, crawl from homepage

Content Extraction

  • Strategy:
    • Prioritize main content areas
    • Remove boilerplate (headers, footers, ads)
    • Extract metadata (title, description)
    • Preserve structure (headings hierarchy)
  • Output: Clean text suitable for embedding

Async Processing

  • Implementation: FastAPI background tasks
  • Benefits:
    • Non-blocking API responses
    • Parallel URL scraping
