I will build a rag chatbot for your documents with source citations


About this gig
I will build a document Q&A chatbot with source citations. We agree on a set of questions and check the answers against your documents.
Basic includes one batch of up to 50 text-based PDF pages, a private web chat and a 10-question test report. Standard supports up to 300 pages and adds individual user logins, document re-upload and 25 test questions. Premium supports up to 1,000 pages, two access roles and 50 test questions.
All packages cover one document language and one model provider, with spend limits. You receive source code, setup notes and deployment to one agreed environment on your hosting. API and hosting fees are separate.
The backend uses FastAPI and PostgreSQL/pgvector. The report covers retrieval and citation checks, including errors and questions the documents cannot answer.
Scanned PDFs/OCR, complex tables, live data connectors and SSO need a custom quote. My DocQA demo and evaluation report are in my portfolio.
Before ordering, send a document sample and five questions so I can check the scope.

FAQ
Will the bot make things up?
No. It answers only from your documents, cites the source and says "not found" when the answer isn't there. You get a test report proving it on your own questions.
Which AI models do you use, and do I need API keys?
OpenAI, Anthropic Claude, DeepSeek or local models via Ollama. You use your own provider account, so usage stays under your control; switching providers is a config change.
How much will it cost to run per month?
Usually a few dollars to a few tens of dollars for a small team. Off-topic questions cost nothing, and daily spend caps are built in.
Is my data used to train a public model?
No. RAG is retrieval, not training. Data stays in your provider account and hosting; I document the setup and hand everything over.
Can it run inside my existing app or on Slack/WhatsApp?
Yes. Premium embeds the chat in your product with streaming, quotas and billing; extra messaging platforms are available as add-ons.
