Synopsis

Data for Entrepreneurs – AI Chatbot Builder’s Guide

In today’s fast-moving digital economy, startups must do more than collect data — they must also communicate smartly, instantly, and at scale. AI chatbots powered by large language models (LLMs) can transform how businesses interact with customers, automate support, and scale outreach. But building one from scratch can feel daunting, especially for early-stage entrepreneurs.

Written by Nikhil Sahai, a seasoned data and AI leader with over 15 years of experience building scalable systems, this guide breaks down the technical complexity of chatbots into practical steps. Whether you’re a founder, a product manager, or a curious builder, this book empowers you to bring your startup’s voice to life with AI.

🔧 What You’ll Learn:

Build an AI Chatbot from Scratch
Learn how to structure your knowledge base, define your bot’s purpose, and set up a working prototype using real startup workflows.

Use LLMs and Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG)
Understand the difference between hosted vs local models, fine-tuning vs RAG, and learn how to choose the right stack for your needs.

Backend Integration
Get hands-on with FastAPI, vector databases like Pinecone, and Gemini/Mistral models to make your chatbot intelligent and contextual.

Deployment Made Simple
Deploy your chatbot on scalable platforms like Google Cloud Run with tools like Docker and Cloud Scheduler — production-grade, founder-friendly.

Improve and Scale
Log user interactions, collect feedback, refine prompts, and scale your bot’s capability as your business grows.

🌟 Why This Book Stands Out

Unlike academic papers or overly technical documentation, this guide bridges the gap between cutting-edge AI tools and startup execution. With a clear focus on speed, simplicity, and scalability, it walks you through the process step-by-step — making AI chatbots accessible even to non-engineers.

You’ll benefit from frameworks and real-world startup examples that reflect the author’s hands-on experience launching AI systems in production.

Whether you want a chatbot to answer FAQs, guide users through onboarding, or power customer service — this book has you covered.
