Key Features

• Modern React.js Frontend: A clean and responsive user interface.
• FastAPI Backend: Handles document processing and question answering efficiently.
• Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG): Provides accurate and context-aware answers by grounding the responses in your uploaded document.
• Local Document Q&A: Ask questions and get answers based on your PDF documents, all running locally.
• Persistent Vector Store: Uses FAISS (via Langchain) for efficient storage and retrieval of document embeddings.
• Optional Together AI Integration: Can leverage the Together AI API (Llama 3) for enhanced language generation. The core application can function, but the chatbot will not respond without a valid API key.
