Product development (actively in progress)

BankingGPT - AI assistant for complaint management in cooperative banking

• Security architecture at the core: no AI draft reaches the customer without human approval - the approval decision is in auditable code, not in the language model (monotonic: the model may escalate, never downgrade).
• Real agentic building blocks, each with its own boundary: the model chooses tools itself through an MCP server (read-only, allowlist, capped, fail-safe); sensitive cases are handed off via an open A2A protocol (JSON-RPC, Agent Card, message/send/tasks/get; client implemented by me) to a separate specialist agent (securities/law), which never lowers the review requirement (pinned by test).
• Evaluation-driven over ten analysis rounds; uncovered a security flaw through independent review and blind tests that nine automated runs had missed.
• Voice AI frontend, responding live: covered cases are answered in the conversation, sensitive ones escalate before generation; response latency < 7 s measured (local GPU STT/TTS).

Stack & production readiness: Python, pydantic-ai, FastAPI/Celery, PostgreSQL/pgvector, FastMCP, fasta2a, Docker; multi-tenant capable (physical vector isolation per tenant), PII encrypted, OWASP-LLM reviewed, 275 tests, CI/CD; vendor-portable (Ollama / EU Cloud Vertex).

After-Sales Assistant - agentic RAG/GraphRAG assistant on public OEM manuals (automotive after-sales)

• Genuinely agentic on LangGraph: ReAct agent with four tools and conversation memory - the model decides on its own whether to use the manual (RAG, Chroma), a knowledge graph (GraphRAG, Neo4j/Cypher - decodes warning lights), or a workshop/booking service.
• Human-in-the-Loop before the irreversible action: before every appointment booking, the graph pauses (interrupt) and gets the driver's explicit confirmation - the same approval-before-action discipline as in BankingGPT, in a different framework.
• Eval as CI gate: a three-part scorecard (RAGAS grounding + deterministic tool-routing accuracy + DeepEval safety: does the answer mention the warning first when there is a critical warning?) blocks the pipeline; provider-agnostic (OpenAI/Azure/Anthropic), FastAPI with token streaming.

Stack: Python, LangChain/LangGraph, Chroma, Neo4j, RAGAS/DeepEval, FastAPI, Docker.
