Emelda-debug/Baraka-AI_Transporter_Assistant

A WhatsApp AI agent that helps fleet managers and drivers handle daily operations. Baraka-Logistics automates the most time-consuming parts of running a fleet. Instead of manual phone calls and back-and-forth messages, drivers use WhatsApp to request services, and the AI handles the rest. What it does: Fuel Services: Drivers get real-time fuel prices or request top-ups instantly. Financial Requests: Drivers can request cash or service funds while on the road. The system logs these requests and provides instant updates. Automated Updates: The system sends out price changes or company announcements to all drivers at once. Admin Dashboard: All requests, logs, and communication history are saved in one place for admins to track, manage, and close out. How it works: Driver messages the agent: "I need cash" or "What is the diesel price?" AI responds instantly: It gives the info or asks for the details needed to process the request. Request is logged: The system saves the data in a database so the office knows exactly what was requested and when. Admin takes over: If follow-up is needed, the admin checks the dashboard, handles the request, and marks it as closed. The Tech Stack: WhatsApp API: Connects the agent directly to drivers' phones. OpenAI: Powers the AI to understand driver requests and talk naturally. Python: The engine that runs the backend logic. PostgreSQL: Stores all service requests, user data, and price logs.
