Hi everyone 👋 I'm a first-time founder on a mission to bring AI innovations that is mainstream in developed countries to developing countries, where innovation often lags behind. Now, let's dive into the tech talk! 🤓 Over the past 6 months, I've been using various AI tools, particularly AI chatbots that train on your website and documents. But I find the output is still not to the quality I want. 😔 It’s because these tools work by embedding text collections (like websites, files, and data sheets) into a vector database. There are a couple of issues with this: ❌ It struggles to answer questions when the answers are not explicitly given in the database. ❌ Popular Generative API libraries have length limits, restricting the AI to a limited pool of contexts. 🥊 To overcome these challenges, I've developed Afforai Build – a new Comprehension Model that tackles these issues head-on: ✅ With Afforai Comprehension Model, our AI chatbot can identify groups of text related to the answer, even if it's not explicitly stated or requires extra reasoning steps. We observed a 5x increase in answer quality that other tools couldn’t even answer! ✅ Our Comprehension Model allows the AI to combine information from different answers and filter irrelevant details. The result? An information-dense answer with a reading coverage of 100,000 words – that's 10x more than the vector embedding method! Our Comprehension Model is highly recommended for tasks like document comprehension, reasoning, report writing, and research. Please try it out and let me know if you have any feedback. I'm just someone who wants to make AI tools more accessible to people, providing them with more opportunities. Talent is everywhere, but opportunity isn't. My mission is to change that, even just a little bit.

@ianwdj First is actually mapping out the framework, the test in modules, then link it all together. After all that, it's just like what Hung said: "Definitely testing and validating the capability of our AI. After that would be coming up and coding the AI system."

💡 Bright idea
This looks good to ease out the data analysis task for the users. But in the Affroi build guide, I couldn't see how efficiently the data analysis is done. Guess I have to take a subscription for it. The product looks great and has a User-friendly interface. Congrats on the launch

@amulya_prasad Thank you for the feedback Amylya. We do have the roadmap to develop more features for data analysis. We have been mainly finetuning our Comprehension model for better reasoning. Give it a try. Also, we don't do subscriptions. It's either FREE or pay-as-you-go. No time restriction.

Congrats on the launch! I've signed up and starting testing Afforai Ask for my next project's business model, and I have had a great experience so far. It has been exactly what I needed with its fast response times. For now, I am considering purchasing the Afforai - Lite Plan. I want to see if Afforai will consistently meet my expectations. Once again, congrats on the launch! 🚀🚀

Congrats Alec on the launch. How is it different than doing it through ChatGPT?
Austin Nguyen | Afforai

@prasad_lingawar3 Hi, I am Austin, the CTO of Afforai. We differentate ourselve from ChatGPT by focusing on two things: Large knowledge coverage and cross language querying. For example, when you upload a file to ChatGPT plugin and ask about it, it will only provide a simple summary for your document, however it cannot search for specific details. Our AI model is based on the Retrieval-Augmented Generation Framework as such the AI can search for relevant pieces of information in the text. What seperate ourselves from similar products is our ability for the AI to consume more text per queries (upto 75,000 words) as well as the ability to upload a document in one language but exclusively ask in a different language. Hope that answers your question.
Alec Nguyen
Maker
@prasad_lingawar3 Great question Prasad! Our difference lies in our Comprehension Model which adds another layer of reasoning that none of the other AI tools in the market have. This allows us to provide a 5x more accurate output, and with a 10x coverage in the amount of data you can input into our platform to process. @hungnguyenkhac7 If i miss anything, my CTO, Hung, can follow up. Or if you have additional questions. We're happy to answer it all!!

Anna Mizina
looks awesome, want to try and see how it can get into my daily work! have a question: how did you measure 5x quality and 10x coverage than other AI chatbots?
Austin Nguyen | Afforai
Maker
@anna_miz For the 10x coverage, we are basing from the typical Retrieval model of our competitors (in which the AI use up to 7,500 words of context per queries) versus our own design which can cover up to 75,000 words of contexts per queries. For the 5x quality, we conducted a survey from our beta users, testing different use cases of translating, analysing data, writing can give a score between what they got from us versus what they got from ChatGPT.

The product looks cool! ⭐️ 1 suggestion though, Please add relevant screenshots highlighting the product features / benefits and may be a tutorial of the product. It helps the community get a better understanding of the product and decide whether it is something they would like to use or not. Otherwise, a great job! 🙌
1 feature suggestion, https://afforai.com/ask/dashboar... Instead of having a text input here for caption creator, it would be great if I could directly upload an image and get a caption generated based on whatever is present in the image!
