Inspiration

One of our members used to work at a grocery store where they had to regularly handle invoices manually which became a hassle. We wanted to create a website that could handle these invoices easily and efficiently and help out others who are facing the same challenges as our friend.

What it does

Take in any input file (.pdf, .jpg, .png, .gif, etc.) and be able to extract the information and display in an easily digestable format to the user.

How we built it

back-end: flask, python, NPL packages front-end: HTML5, CSS

Challenges we ran into

Reading and classifying data across multiple lines.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Smooth and appealing user interface.

What we learned

How to use new packages and integrate them all together and utilize NLP API's to process the input files and extract information.

What's next for invoice-aid

More efficient document upload, more file data categories.
