High-Level Architecture Frontend
Client dashboard: onboarding, project setup, knowledge base upload, channel configuration.
Customer-facing AI bot interface: chat page embedded in client’s site, Telegram, email, etc.
Admin dashboard: monitor conversations, override responses.
Backend (Python)
Core app framework: Django / FastAPI (FastAPI recommended for async, API-first approach).
Authentication & Accounts: Multi-tenant user management (each client = tenant).
Project & Channel Management: Store client configs (Telegram bot keys, email SMTP creds, AI model choice).
Message Orchestration: Routes queries → preprocess → AI model → knowledge base → return response.
Knowledge Base (MCP integration): Ingest docs, PDFs, Google Drive/OneDrive, index content, semantic search.
AI Connector Layer: Wrappers for ChatGPT, Perplexity, and future LLMs.
Monitoring & Logging: Store all conversations, admin can review & edit.
Database
PostgreSQL/MySQL: for structured data (users, projects, configs, logs).
Vector DB: Pinecone, Weaviate, or open-source FAISS for knowledge base indexing.
AI / NLP
Connector: OpenAI API (ChatGPT), Perplexity API, and pluggable LLMs.
Pre-/Post-processing pipeline: inject context, system prompts, etc.
Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG): option to fine-tune or use RAG with knowledge base.
Communication Integrations
Telegram Bot API: customer chats.
Email Gateway: SMTP + IMAP, or services like SendGrid.
Optional: WhatsApp Business API, Slack, Web widget.
File Handling & Knowledge Base
File parser: PDF, DOCX, TXT.
Cloud storage integration: Google Drive/Dropbox API for linked knowledge sources.
Embeddings generator: OpenAI embeddings, HuggingFace models.
Indexing service: store embeddings into Vector DB.
Infrastructure
Cloud deployment: AWS, GCP, Azure, or DigitalOcean.
Containerization: Docker.
Background task runner: Celery / RQ for async jobs (e.g., doc parsing).
Caching: Redis for messages and sessions.
