CustomGPT

CustomGPT

Featured Project

CustomGPT is a versatile LLM chatbot built with Streamlit that integrates multiple language models (OpenAI, DeepSeek, HuggingFace, and Ollama) and implements Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) techniques (both Simple RAG and LightRAG). It supports various RAG operations, including document uploads, web link analysis, GitHub repository context, and research paper integration. It utilizes Pinecone and Chroma for vector databases and stores chat history in MongoDB.
