Overview

BanglaMind is a Bengali chatbot SaaS prototype that explores retrieval-augmented customer support for Bangladeshi small businesses.

My contribution

  • Built the backend foundation with FastAPI.
  • Designed a retrieval flow around PostgreSQL vector search.
  • Integrated BanglaBERT into a Bengali-language support workflow.

Approach and tools

  • API layer: FastAPI and Python.
  • Storage and retrieval: PostgreSQL with vector search.
  • Generation workflow: custom RAG pipeline for business knowledge.

Evidence and status

  • A deployed prototype is available for review.
  • Repository documentation and usage examples are the source of truth for current capabilities.

Limitations

The prototype requires broader evaluation for answer quality, safety, latency, and production-scale traffic before being positioned as a production service.

Next steps

  • Add evaluation datasets and Bengali answer-quality metrics.
  • Document ingestion, retrieval, and fallback behavior.
  • Add authentication, observability, and production deployment guidance.
