What Was Built

Phase 0: Foundation & Widget ✅

• Backend Structure: Complete Go backend with session management

  • Chat UI with accessibility features
  • Voice controls (push-to-talk, hands-free)
  • Avatar view component
  • Captions support
  • Settings panel
  • PostMessage API for host integration
• Integration: Added to main docker-compose.yml

Phase 1: Voice & Realtime ✅

• WebRTC Gateway: WebSocket-based signaling infrastructure
• ASR Service: Interface and mock implementation (ready for Deepgram/Google STT integration)
• TTS Service: Interface and mock implementation (ready for ElevenLabs/Azure TTS integration)
• Orchestrator: Complete conversation orchestrator with:
  • State machine (IDLE → LISTENING → THINKING → SPEAKING)
  • Barge-in support (interrupt handling)
  • Audio/video synchronization

Phase 2: LLM & RAG ✅

• LLM Gateway: Interface and mock (ready for OpenAI/Anthropic integration)
• Prompt Builder: Multi-tenant prompt assembly with RAG context injection
• RAG Service: Complete implementation with pgvector:
  • Document ingestion
  • Vector similarity search
  • Citation formatting
• Tool Framework: Complete tool system with:
  • Tool registry
  • Executor with audit logging
  • Banking tool integrations:
    • get_account_status
    • create_support_ticket
    • schedule_appointment
    • submit_payment

Phase 3: Avatar System ✅

• Unreal Engine Setup: Complete documentation and structure
• Renderer Service: PixelStreaming integration service
• Animation Controller: Complete animation system:
  • Viseme mapping (phoneme → viseme)
  • Expression system (valence/arousal → facial expressions)
  • Gesture system (rule-based gesture selection)

Phase 4: Memory & Observability ✅

• Memory Service: User profiles and conversation history
• Observability: Tracing and metrics collection
• Safety/Compliance: Content filtering and rate limiting

Phase 5: Enterprise Features ✅

• Multi-tenancy: Complete tenant configuration system
• Compliance: Safety filters, PII redaction, rate limiting
• Documentation: Complete docs for architecture, API, widget integration, deployment

Next Steps for Production

1. Integrate Real Services:

   • Replace ASR mock with Deepgram/Google STT
   • Replace TTS mock with ElevenLabs/Azure TTS
   • Replace LLM mock with OpenAI/Anthropic
   • Connect banking tools to actual backend/banking/ services

2. Complete WebRTC:

   • Implement full WebRTC signaling
   • Add TURN server configuration
   • Complete media streaming

3. Unreal Engine Setup:

   • Create actual Unreal project
   • Import digital human character
   • Configure PixelStreaming
   • Package for deployment

4. Testing:

   • Unit tests for all services
   • Integration tests
   • E2E tests for widget

5. Production Hardening:

   • Secrets management
   • Monitoring & alerting
   • Scaling configuration
   • Security audit
