Hi everyone π
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! π€
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. π Itβs 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:
β It struggles to answer questions when the answers are not explicitly given in the database.
β Popular Generative API libraries have length limits, restricting the AI to a limited pool of contexts.
π₯ To overcome these challenges, I've developed Afforai Build β a new Comprehension Model that tackles these issues head-on:
β 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 couldnβt even answer!
β 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 β 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."
Well done on the launch π . I am convinced you will have many signs up today because your tool is beneficial. I love the UI. The framework between Afforai Build and Afforai Ask is compelling. I am in a hurry now to train my new assistant π
@nickyborry Thank you for such a insightful review, Axel. You have been such an amazing supporter to my team and I. So, really, thank you!!
And good luck with training your assistant.
@andres_rivera3 thank you Andres, hope youβll enjoy and find Afforai helpful just as much as us! Let us know your feedbacks and user experiences π
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.
@alec_afforai Congratulations on the Launch! I like the user-friendly interface and could get started straight away without the need to watch a video tutorial. I love the colour scheme too! I used it to generate a summary for a marketing blog, and I found the content to be smoother than Chat GPT. The pay-as-you-go feature is fantastic and lets users use the platform as needed without committing to monthly or annual subscriptions. However, I do have a question: How long does Afforai store the data?
@pixel_dust Hi Stephanie. Thank you so much for your feedback. I'm really happy to hear you find our UI easy to use.
Make sure to take advantage of our 60% discount. We're glad our free and pay-as-you-go model is well received. We also don't like subscriptions.
To answer your question, the documents that you upload onto our platform only stays up there as long as you want it. The same goes for the conversation logs. You can delete it anytime you want to by deleting the chatbot.
Thank you again for your support and let me know if you have other questions, Stephanie!!
Congrats on the launch! Btw what AI model does your team use that can speed up your writing tasks with 5 times the quality and 10 times the capability of ChatGPT?
@tra_dao Under the hood we use the OpenAI API to power the LLM portion of our model. And we use other open-source libraries (for example HuggingFace and Langchain) to help us upgrade the AI to better fit the intented use case.
By doing this, we made a AI system that can answered upto 75,000 words of context in one query (10x times that of the Retrieval Model in the market), as well as allowing users to upload documents in one language (ex. Vietnamese) and ask question in another language (ex. English).
When testing with our beta users, we test on various use cases like text summarization, text analysis, and translation and ask our users on how our model preformed versus ChatGPT, hence the 5x quality.
This is amazing. We were thinking a solution like this would work wonders in the FAQ/Customer service section for our website. A tool like this that can comprehensively go through information for the most accurate answers is a gem!
@balamurali Thank you very much. Right now we have the feature to share the AI as an embeded on your website as well as API calls. We are planning to expand on our features in sharing chatbots.
@balamurali Thank you for seeing such a great use case! That's our intention in creating our Comprehension Model, it's to improve on the limitations of the current AI chatbot tools.
@vinnie_tran Hi, thank you for your interest in the app.
Our AI specialize in large text processing and cross language support so the best use case for our product is to analyze huge amount of text (a books, multiple research papers) in a language that you might not speak.
For example, some of our early users only speak Vietnamese, but they were able to chat with the AI about English news sites.
I checked out the website and have a few comments
- Would be cool if I can use md file as document since I record docs in that format, though it also works if I paste it as text
- AI is pretty fast so that's cool
- Understands the documents pretty well
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?
@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.
Congratulations @alec_afforai
This is definitely an awesome use of AI. It will save users a lot of time reading through large document content.
Two questions:
1. Can this be used in the Book Summaries niche for summarizing an e-book?
2. Can legal documents (Eg: Terms of Service, NDA, etc) be summarized by Afforai?
@alec_afforai@andrewdietekoki Hi, I am Austin, the CTO of the company. The answer for the first part is YES. Afforai is perfect for summarizing an e-book. In fact, each call using Afforai Build product can cover up to 75,000 words, which makes it perfect for task regarding summarizing large volume of content. In addition, user can upload an e-book in any language, and ask questions about it in English, and vice versa.
For the second part, yes Afforai can scan text pdf, and we are expanding support for scanned pdf in the future. For legal documents, Afforai is going with OpenAI privacy policy for API, which is that the query you send to OpenAI will only be stored in its server for 30 days before deletion. As for Afforai, we will never use your data for anything other than using it to answer your queries.
The product looks cool! βοΈ
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! π
1 feature suggestion,

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!
@kaustumbh7 Hi Kaustumbh, really appreciate the feedback! That's a valid point! We'll work on that in the next update launch! Thank you for the support.
Hey there @alec_afforai I just want to tell you congrats on this beautiful launchππ Working with documentation also, I can tell that this tool really is helpful for everyone who use documentation daily. Best of luck mate π
@dragos_bulugean That's very kind of you to say. Thank you Dragos. I look forward to see how Afforai would be of value to you. I want to highlight that our platform is either free or pay-as-you-go. We say no to subscriptions that rip off your wallet. This is our way to showing that we care about the users and the value we want to offer.
Congratulations on the launch!!! πAs a marketer who creates daily content for blog posts, emails, and social media, this product is a valuable treasure for me. Can't wait to try it out and experience how it will simplify my life! !!!
@donmarco Hi Marco, thanks for your support. Our main metric right now is user conversion rate from trial to paid. We are working on figuring out the customer journey.
