TherapistGPT Engine

A specialized REST API suite hosting fine-tuned neural models for audio feature classification, emotion state parsing, and cognitive counseling assistance responses.

System Challenge

Serving massive, fine-tuned deep learning models via a standard REST API without blocking the event loop or causing extensive request timeouts during real-time emotional analysis.

Architecture & Solution

Engineered a highly optimized Django REST Framework suite. Implemented a decoupled architecture where audio parsing and TensorFlow model inference run on background Celery workers, returning stateful status updates to the client.

Performance Outcomes

  • Successfully decoupled heavy tensor operations from the primary API request cycle.
  • Enabled near-real-time emotion state classification from raw audio bytes.
  • Created a secure, rate-limited environment suitable for sensitive cognitive queries.
