The project consists of developing an intelligent chatbot interface dedicated to the Dreiländer MTB Tour, designed to provide visitors with immediate and accurate information about the route, stages, services, and logistical details of the tour. See AI Chatbot here
The interface is modern, responsive, and easy to use on both desktop and mobile devices.
Users can ask questions in natural language and receive clear, context-aware answers based entirely on verified content provided by the tour organization.
Unlike traditional chatbots that rely on public web searches, this system is based on a local, controlled knowledge base, ensuring consistency, accuracy, and full editorial control.
