Off topic - the web design / color theme is slick. Definitely stands out among the many chatbots of today.

Is it a template that is available openly so we might repurpose / customize starting from this baseline?

Nice thanks lol. I had to do a recent overhaul of this. And I agree, this is not a chatbot. v1 was a chatbot actually, but it wasn't received well for various reasons, one being that you get just one response per question, no peripheral information. I designed it to be more like tweets where you see the thing you looked for, but also get to see related stuff.

This provides a secondary benefit of making hallucinations much much rarer. Try making it lie or make stuff up, it's pretty resilient now. If you find one, let me know; I haven't seen one in a while now thanks to y'all's redteaming.

It's a custom template unfortunately, I can change the colors but it's not modular at all (yeah I know, should have maybe started that way).

For reference, I'm using React + Typescript + Tailwind.
