👀 Overview

Medha is the Siri that we all deserved but never got. Unlike all other virtual assistants, Medha is not reactive in nature but proactive. It has access to all your tools that you configure, and it just automatically does the right thing at the right time.

⚡ Problem Statement

Current virtual assistants have fundamental limitations:

• They are reactive, waiting for user commands rather than taking initiative
• They operate in isolation, lacking context about your digital ecosystem
• They require explicit commands for every action, creating cognitive overhead
• They don't learn from your patterns or anticipate your needs
• They fail to leverage the full potential of your digital tools and workflows

💡 Our Solution

Medha reimagines virtual assistance through ambient computing:

• Proactive Intelligence: Anticipates needs and takes action before being asked
• Ambient Awareness: Maintains continuous awareness of your digital context
• Autonomous Workflows: Automatically orchestrates tasks across multiple platforms
• Contextual Learning: Builds understanding of your work patterns and preferences
• Seamless Integration:
  • Connects with your essential tools (Gmail, GCal, GDrive, etc.)
  • Manages workflows without explicit commands
  • Delivers information through natural audio interfaces
  • Adapts to your changing needs and priorities

🛠️ Tech Stack

📱 Mobile Application (Medha)

• Framework: React Native with Expo
• Language: TypeScript
• Audio Processing: Sarvam AI
• Notifications: Expo Notifications with Firebase Cloud Messaging

🔄 AI Workflow Engine

• Framework: n8n

🖥️ Server

• Deciding the overall product, the interface for interaction and which workflows to target was complex in itself. We know the idea but implemeting in, impacting the most important workflows that actually create value was challenging.
• We spoke to a lot of ppl to gather feedback on what truly matters to them in their day to day tasks.
• A new learning was using Expo Go which had never used before. App Dev was a first.
• Another challenge was to integrate n8n workflows with the frontend.
• The overall integration of all technologies and architecting the solution was also a challenge.
