Inspiration

Huge part of business people, managers lack of coding, SQL skills. This slows down a lot of process, e.g. brainstorming, ad-hoc meetings etc. Our solution helps to query databases without any SQL skills, just with voice. This helps meetings, talks and any occasion when data and analytics are required on the fly.

Imagine, how great it would be to make queries and perform analysis by your voice in real time? Now stop dreeming, we made it real - BankTalk is here!

What it does

Using speech API's provided by Microsoft Azure, our product converts the voice to text and the text is evaluated to understand what data is requested. After running the query on the db the result is returned in a visualized format.

How we built it

The starting point is the voice recognition with the help of Microsoft Azure. This feeds Luis (Microsoft Language Understanding Services). The result of LUIS is translated in the business logic to query the DB or excel. With the powerful analysing capabilities of Python the DB is analysed and the result is visualized.

Challenges we ran into

New languages, new technologies (e.g. Azure, Speech recognition, Chatbots), and integrating the different coding languages into one application.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Combined different new technologies into a working prototype. In the timeline we accomplished all the planned features we had a lot of fun.

What we learned

That you don't have to worry about using/learning new technologies. You can fail even in the most safe part of the project. Working in team is fun :)

What's next for BankTalk

We wait for the reaction of the Jury and the other Hackers first. But probably the BankTalk team will have a long sleep tomorrow/today.
