How to Add a Chat Feature That Responds to Data-Related Queries?

We have a data collection application. The product is used for gathering metadata.

• My assigned responsibility involves conducting thorough research and devising an initial solution: Introducing a chat feature within our application. This feature should have the capability to provide answers to queries about the data our product has accumulated. Please advise on the potential tools and methods we could deploy in this development. What resources would be needed to bring this solution to life?

Facing this challenge, I find myself a bit out of my comfort zone, as my expertise lies primarily in traditional data engineering. This assignment, which feels rather new to me, makes me uncertain about where to start. Furthermore, I have not been provided with any additional requirements or specific product information, which makes it more challenging for me.

Your guidance on how I could approach this problem would be highly appreciated.
