Financial AI
Inspiration
I wanted to make something that would educate people about personal finance. Personal finance is something that everyone has to learn regardless of who they are. Unfortunately, not everyone knows much about personal finance. I aim to help guide those who aren't equipped with financial knowledge.
What it does
I decided to create a web app that analyzes a person's financial information and suggests improvements. You input your financial information (credit, income, expenses, saving, etc.) and it will analyze and tell you what you to stop doing or keep doing.
How we built it
I used the Django backend framework and used the Python and HTML/CSS languages. The python scripts are used to evaluate the user's information. I also used the Nasdaq API to access information on the economy. I fed this information into a machine learning model to train and test it to predict the inflation rate of the upcoming year.
Challenges we ran into
This was my first experience with Django and I had to figure out how to link everything together. I had issues with "static" files, as is called in Django, files such as images, CSS files, and CSV files.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
I was able to put together a working web app that provides useful information to the user. I was able to train a reasonably accurate ML model to predict upcoming inflation rates.
What's next for Financial AI
Financial AI will continue to be developed and new features will be added. I hope to include features that will analyze a person's investment portfolio as well as a retirement plan.
