AI Assistant for Self-Care
PayFit Copilot is an LLM based assistant that aims providing instant and qualitative support to customers queries.
About the project
The project was about providing a fluid and smooth experience to customers in their journey to ask support. The goal was to replace an existing chatbot with tentacular rules and branches, hard to maintain, by an assistant that answers level basic legal and HR questions and redirects to customer support when it needs more expertise.
