🩺🤖 Health Bot
Welcome to Health Bot – an open-source, AI-powered chatbot built during the Summer of AI 2025 Internship at Swecha.
Health Bot is designed to give basic health tips and guidance in multiple Indian languages, while collecting anonymized, culturally diverse health-related advice as an open-source corpus.
✨ About the Project
Purpose: Build a chatbot for users to share basic health tips in English or local languages.
Corpus Goal: Collect anonymized, culturally diverse health tips shared by users, to help train AI models on real-world multilingual informal health advice.
Health Bot is not for diagnosis or direct consultation — it serves as a knowledge-gathering platform focused on community-generated tips.Offline-first: Designed to work in low-bandwidth or offline scenarios using lightweight open-source AI models.
Not a medical tool: Provides general health tips only, not diagnosis.
