This is a project for Matador.ai
AutoBot is an AI-powered car dealership assistant that makes buying a car faster and easier. It answers questions, recommends vehicles, and helps users explore various vehicles at a dealership—all through an intuitive chat interface.
What it does
AutoBot acts like a car salesperson but with fast, AI generated responses. It can:
- Answer questions about cars, features, and pricing.
- Recommend cars based on your budget and preferences.
- Help you browse available cars in the dealership inventory.
It’s like having your own car expert, 24/7.
How we built it
- Frontend: Built with Next.js for a fast and modern UI.
- Backend: Flask handles the logic, and MongoDB stores inventory and user data.
- AI: We used TensorFlow, scikit-learn, NLP, and LLMs like ChatGPT for recommendations and conversations.
- Integrated APIs to connect everything seamlessly.
Challenges we ran into
- Not knowing where to start and how to approach the problem at hand.
- Training AI models to understand car-specific questions.
- Making sure the system runs fast and handles data smoothly.
- Debugging issues between the frontend, backend, and database.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
- Building a functional AI assistant in a short time.
- Getting the AI to handle real dealership-specific queries well.
- Making the frontend sleek and easy to use.
What we learned
- How to integrate a bunch of different technologies into one system.
- Challenges of training AI for a niche use case.
- The importance of designing a good user experience.
What's next for AutoBot
- Add voice interaction for a hands-free experience
- Build a mobile app for on-the-go car browsing.
- Keep improving the AI based on user feedback.
