🔄 How It Works

1. Intent Classification

The agent first classifies user intent using a two-stage approach:

Stage 1: Keyword Detection

• Checks for high-intent keywords (e.g., "sign up", "try", "my channel")
• Reduces API calls by ~30-40%

Stage 2: LLM Classification

• Uses Gemini API with compressed prompts
• Classifies as: greeting, inquiry, or high_intent_lead

2. RAG-Powered Responses

For product inquiries:

1. User query is embedded using HuggingFace embeddings
2. FAISS retrieves semantically similar content from knowledge base
3. Retrieved context is injected into LLM prompt
4. Gemini generates accurate, context-aware response

3. Lead Capture Flow

When high intent is detected:

1. Agent enters lead capture mode
2. Sequentially collects: name → email → platform
3. Validates data completeness before tool execution
4. Triggers lead capture only when all fields are collected
5. Confirms account setup to user

4. State Management

• Uses LangGraph's StateGraph for workflow orchestration
• State persists across conversation turns using session IDs
• Optimized to maintain only last 4 messages for context

⚡ Token Optimization

Performance Metrics

Before Optimization:

• ~800-1200 tokens per conversation turn
• Verbose system prompts (~150-200 tokens)
• Full conversation history (10 messages)

After Optimization:

• ~300-500 tokens per conversation turn
• Compressed prompts (~50-80 tokens)
• Reduced history (4 messages)
• Overall: 60% token reduction

Optimization Strategies

1. Conversation History Reduction

   • Limited from 10 to 4 messages
   • Saves ~60% on context tokens

2. Prompt Compression

   • Example: "You are a friendly AI assistant for AutoStream..." → "AutoStream AI assistant. Greet warmly, ask how to help. Be brief."
   • Saves ~60-70% on prompt tokens

3. Smart Keyword Detection

   • Checks keywords before LLM call
   • Reduces API calls by 30-40%

4. Optimized Intent Classification

   • Compressed classification prompt by 70%
   • Faster response times

Benefits

• ✅ 3x more conversations within API quota
• ✅ Faster response times
• ✅ 60% cost reduction
• ✅ Better user experience

🎨 Frontend Design

Tech-Themed Interface

• Color Scheme: Black, grey, and white gradients
• Typography: Inter font with JetBrains Mono for code
• Animations: Smooth transitions and typing indicators
