  The official implementation of RAPTOR: Recursive Abstractive Processing for Tree-Organized Retrieval

Hi HN! For my senior thesis in CS, I built an SMS-based application to make journalism more accessible. It works like this:

1) You text the topics you're interested in to my phone number. Every day, you'll receive a text with 5 headlines from The Associated Press (https://apnews.com/) related to those topics.

2) If you have questions about any of the current events the headlines describe, you just text them back. A response is generated from the contents of the articles using the RAPTOR retrieval framework (https://github.com/parthsarthi03/raptor) and texted right back to you.

The repo can be found here: https://github.com/tdh15/pressText

I'd really appreciate any and all feedback. Whatever you got, I'd love to hear it :)
