Inspiration
We were trying to invest in stocks, but it required a lot of reading and research which hindered any possibility of a quick investment decision.
What it does
The code provides an analysis using company data and competitor data and then provides a suitable report. A summary is created which gives a recommendation over whether to invest in the company and lists reasons based on the information provided initially below.
How we built it
We used Velo Wix to create a front end for our website that allowed the user to select their desired company. Submitting it would provide it with the analysis, as well as some financial documents of the company. We used python to write the back end. We scraped the documents using the Bing search API. As for the analysis itself, we created our own rest API uploaded to Google Cloud. It included GPT 3.
Challenges we ran into
There was a lack of documentation for the SEC API. And we were unable to get Velo to run a get request to our API initially.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
We are proud of the API we created. And besides that, we were efficient with the use of ChatGPT to write routine lines of code which saved us from documentation for API requests.
What we learned
We learned how to leverage google cloud and bing search API, which would serve fruitful future coding processes. We also learned how to create a functioning language model.
What's next for InvesTLDR
The next step would be to find a market of investors for this website, and provide poetic justice to its cause.
