Flow description

Purpose and benefits

Overview

This workflow implements a chatbot that enables users to upload an image and ask questions about its content. Using a combination of Optical Character Recognition (OCR) and visual recognition technologies, the chatbot analyzes the image and provides accurate, context-sensitive answers. This automation is highly valuable for scaling tasks where users need to extract information from images or interact with visual data conversationally.

Step-by-Step Flow

  1. Chat Initialization

    • When the chat session is opened, the workflow triggers a welcome message using the Message Widget.
    • The message introduces users to the chatbot’s capabilities, explaining that they can upload images and ask questions about the content.
  2. User Input Handling

    • Users can interact with the chatbot by:
      • Typing a question about an image.
      • Uploading an image file.
    • The Chat Input node captures both the question (text message) and the uploaded image (file input).
  3. Image and Question Processing

    • The Generator node receives:
      • The uploaded image (for OCR/visual recognition).
      • The user’s question (as context for the large language model).
    • The generator analyzes the image, extracts information (e.g., text via OCR or visual features), and formulates a relevant answer to the question.
  4. Response Delivery

    • The answer generated by the model is routed to a Chat Output node, which displays the response to the user in the chat interface.
    • If an image was uploaded, it can also be displayed in the chat for reference.

Workflow Structure

Here’s a simplified structure of the workflow:

Benefits and Use Cases

  • Automation & Scalability: This workflow automates the process of extracting information from images, enabling rapid and consistent answers to visual questions without human intervention.
  • Versatility: Useful for customer support, educational tools, document analysis, and any scenario where users need to query or understand images.
  • Enhanced User Experience: Provides a conversational interface, making it easy and intuitive for users to interact with complex image analysis tools.
  • Seamless Integration: The modular node-based design allows for future expansion or integration of more advanced recognition models.

Example Use Cases

  • Document Digitization: Users upload pictures of documents and ask for summaries or specific details.
  • Product Support: Customers send images of products and inquire about specifications or issues.
  • Educational Tools: Students upload diagrams or charts and ask explanatory questions.

By automating visual question answering with this workflow, organizations can make powerful image analysis tools accessible to a broad audience, reduce manual effort, and deliver faster, smarter responses at scale.
