ORAM.AI: A multi-agent chatbot with RAG-based reasoning and MCP integration for adaptive fitness recommendation
Abstract
The proliferation of conversational AI systems has created opportunities for personalized fitness guidance, yet current implementations face significant limitations in domain-specific knowledge retrieval, multi-modal interaction, and adaptive reasoning. This paper presents ORAM.AI, a multi-agent system that integrates Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) with Model Context Protocol (MCP) for adaptive fitness recommendations. Unlike single-model chatbot architectures, ORAM.AI employs a coordinated ensemble of specialized agents: a keyword extraction agent for intent classification, an MCP-based exercise database retrieval service, a fine-tuned exercise advisor agent trained on 1572 training domain-specific prompt-completion pairs (from a 1746-pair corpus), and an orchestrator agent synthesizing multi-source information into coherent responses. Voice interaction is supported through Speech-to-Text (STT) transcription achieving 96.2% word accuracy, Text-to-Speech (TTS) synthesis, and a hands-free conversation mode via Voice Activity Detection (VAD) with real-time frequency analysis. A seven-dimension evaluation framework empirically characterizes the system: a human expert evaluation by two certified fitness professionals across 50 fitness questions and six quality dimensions yields a grand mean rating of 4.20/5.00 (SD=0.91) with 80.2% of 600 ratings at 4 or above; a controlled baseline comparison quantifies multi-agent orchestration gains over a single-LLM architecture; an ablation study isolates the complementary contributions of MCP retrieval and domain fine-tuning; and a joint comparison against two open-source Agentic RAG fitness chatbots contextualizes system performance. This work demonstrates how multi-agent orchestration, RAG-based knowledge augmentation, and multi-modal interaction can be combined in a deployment-oriented system design to deliver constraint-aware, context-conditioned recommendations through text and voice.
