Home / Hire a developer / AI chatbot or AI assistant
Jonald Penpillo, an AI developer in the Philippines, builds AI chatbots and assistants that answer from your own documents and data, cite their sources, respect permissions and refuse what is out of scope. He has three such systems in production.
Proof, not promises
One chat for internal AI agents. A router (bge-m3 embeddings + qwen3:8b) sends each question to a Policy Agent with permission-aware hybrid retrieval and citations, or a Quality Rubrics Agent. Runs on local models, so policy text never leaves company servers. Evaluated on 90 policy questions and 76 routing cases.
Stack: Python, FastAPI, Ollama, qwen3:8b, bge-m3, pgvector, Supabase
A travel assistant with 25 live tools (flights, hotels, tours, weather, tides, safety) and retrieval over 217 curated entries in pgvector. Answers stream as cards onto a live map, with guardrails against invented inventory and a live-model evaluation harness. Innovation Award, Top Executive Congress 2025.
Stack: Python, FastAPI, Gemini via OpenRouter, pgvector, Supabase, React
Booking and payments platform for a 30-bay golf driving range, pickleball courts and a kids playground, with a five-step booking flow, live bay availability and PayMongo checkout. Range AI answers guests on the website and Facebook Messenger and takes them from a question to a paid booking; accuracy on real guest messages rose from 55% to 71%.
Stack: React 19, TypeScript, Express 5, Supabase, PayMongo, Python, scikit-learn, Gemini, Messenger API

Yes. Brigada LLM runs entirely on local models through Ollama, so company policy text never leaves the company’s servers.
Jonald designs against it: answers are grounded in retrieved sources with citations, fact guards block changed prices or links, and evaluation sets measure accuracy before and after changes.
