The project
Lisa AI is a skincare chatbot that gives personalized, science-based advice. It asks users about their skin type, age, concerns and goals, then answers from a library of expert skincare books in PDF format, using OpenAI's GPT model to turn that knowledge into tailored routines, product suggestions and do's and don'ts. The chatbot stays on skincare topics, and admins can add new PDFs to improve its answers. The first version runs locally, with an architecture ready for cloud, mobile and e-commerce integration.
The challenge
- People facing acne, dryness or pigmentation are overwhelmed by product choice and often pick the wrong one.
- General chatbots answer anything, which makes their skincare advice hard to trust.
- Expert skincare knowledge sits in books that most people never read.
What we built
- A conversational skin assessment covering skin type, age, sensitivity and concerns.
- Answers grounded in expert skincare books loaded as PDFs.
- GPT-generated routines, product suggestions and do's and don'ts for each user.
- Guardrails that keep the chatbot on skincare.
- Admin controls to upload new PDFs and manage content.
