Clarity AI

How It Works

Given a query, Clarity fetches relevant, up-to-date information from the web and uses OpenAI's API to generate an answer.

The app works as follows:

  1. Get query from user
  2. Scrape Google for relevant webpages
  3. Parse webpages for text
  4. Build prompt using query + webpage text
  5. Call OpenAI API to generate answer
  6. Stream answer back to user

Requirements

Get OpenAI API key here.

Running Locally

  1. Clone repo
git clone https://github.com/mckaywrigley/clarity-ai.git
  1. Install dependencies
npm i
  1. Run app
npm run dev

Improvement Ideas

Here are some ideas for how to improve Clarity:

  • Speed up answers by replacing link scraping with the Google Search API (scraping was used to circumvent cost + rate limits)
  • Add "follow up" searches
  • Improve the prompt
  • Get sources working in non text-davinci-003 models
  • Train your own model to use for answer synthesis

Credits

Shoutout to Perplexity AI for the inspiration. I highly recommend checking their product out.

This repo is meant to show people that you can build powerful apps like Perplexity even if you don't have a large, experienced team.

LLMs are amazing, and I hope Clarity inspires you to build something cool!
