Introduction to building the enterprise chatbot demo

The hosts introduce the session and prepare to live-code a standard enterprise chat application.

#2 about 3 min

Scaffolding the chatbot application using Vercel AI SDK

The underlying application scaffolding uses a subagent to generate standard components via Vercel AI SDK and Tailwind.

#3 about 3 min

Enforcing quality standards using context and subagents

Knowledge graphs provide context to the agent to enforce production standards and fulfill custom quality gates.

#4 about 4 min

Selecting Anthropic models and anticipating UI styling updates

Claude Sonnet is selected for inference speed over Opus while waiting for the interface styles to compile correctly.

#5 about 2 min

Testing the retrieval application against a vendor proposal

An uploaded vendor proposal demonstrates how the generic application retrieves specific answers from the provided context.

#6 about 3 min

Why general-purpose chatbots violate GDPR purpose limitation

Standard general-purpose RAG architecture fundamentally breaches GDPR guidelines because it lacks a documented, limited legal purpose.

#7 about 3 min

Designing a purpose-scoped architecture for legal compliance

The system needs to map requests through a bot picker and an explicit legal configuration before accessing language models.

#8 about 3 min

Defining usage boundaries and legal basis for auditors

Organizations must proactively govern and document access constraints for specific personal data before execution to satisfy compliance auditors.

#9 about 5 min

Refactoring the chat interface to enforce documented use cases

Developers must integrate a frontend selection layer that enforces organizational limits on data processing and establishes explicit usage guidelines.

#10 about 5 min

Communicating constraints to users and finding compliance resources

Organizations must explicitly collect user consent and communicate limitations within the interface to maintain data accountability.
