Inspiration

I built this platform because I wanted to help people manage their finances, improve their financial knowledge using AI, and handle debts—all in one place. FinSphere combines simplicity with a user-friendly UI that makes financial management accessible for everyone.

What it does

FinSphere is a 360° financial management and education platform that leverages AI to empower users to:

  • Learn about finance through AI-driven insights.
  • Track expenses effortlessly.
  • Create personalized savings plans using AI.
  • Strategize and manage debt repayment with tailored recommendations.
  • Visualize their finances with dynamic, interactive charts.

How we built it

  • Frontend: Built using Next.js for server-side rendering and CSS for styling to ensure an optimized and smooth user experience.
  • Backend: Node.js and Express to handle APIs and manage financial data.
  • Database: MongoDB, optimized for fetching and aggregating analytics data.
  • AI Integration: Implemented Google's GEMINI (Gemini 1.5 Flash) model to deliver personalized insights and actionable financial advice.
