1. Problem Context & Objectives

Finding an answer inside a long, multi-format enterprise document is tedious manual work — scanning pages for a single figure, table, or clause.

2. Technical Architecture & Implementation

Built an interactive Streamlit QA system that parses unstructured documents into FAISS vector representations, keeps conversational memory, and returns answers with source attribution.

3. Outcomes, Benchmarks & Empirical Validation

Turned document search into conversation: upload a document, ask a question, and get a cited answer in seconds instead of scanning for minutes — an early, clean demonstration of the RAG pattern the research later formalizes.

Source Code Inspection & Local Replication

This system is maintained in an open-source repository with full git commit history, environment configuration templates (.env.example), and dependency manifests.
