Challenges

AI Integration & Data Privacy
The idea to have AI in Melly was all about providing therapy and other insights related to one's problem.
Data privacy and accuracy had to be maintained as per a user.
The team had to ensure AI responses were relevant and safe for mental health use cases.
Dynamic Content Management
The team had to make all the content in dynamic form right from the backend.
This was the client's request so that a non tech member can also make changes in the content.
Content needed to be easily updatable without developer involvement.
User Activity Tracking
The task to manage complete state, frequency, and time of a day with personal FAQs was a lot of work.
We needed to track completed exercises and assessments, prompt users at optimal times.
And align these prompts with personal responses and preferences.

Our Solution

Gemini API Integration
We used the Gemini API for its advances in NLP and sentiment analysis.
With its secured data transfer protocols and strict privacy policies, we ensured data privacy.
Constant testing and training improved the AI model's accuracy and relevance. User feedback helped us fine tune AI responses.
Dynamic CMS with GraphQL
A robust CMS built helped us with the content criteria.
An admin can add content without any code.
With GraphQL, the system updates and fetches new data, resulting in a great UI experience for a user as a front end functionality.
Schedule & Track System
The team came up with a schedule and track system to monitor every user activity.
To track one's history of activity in the app became easy.
A blend of cron jobs and real time processing were in use to notify users as per their time zones.

Features Implemented
