Built using OpenAI's GPT-3.5 and enhanced with spaCy's language detection capabilities, ZenMate currently supports English, Hindi, and Tamil. Unlike generic chatbots, ZenMate integrates culturally contextualized system prompts that reflect specific social, emotional, and family dynamics relevant to each supported language.
