Inspiration

As students still figuring out how to plan our lives, it can be hard to break down our goals into something manageable. We wanted to create a program for people like us who need a little extra help working towards our goals, and on a daily basis.

What it does

LifePuzzle will take a goal given by a user, and break it into various tasks. LifePuzzle will give you one task a day, and as you complete your tasks, it will give you puzzle pieces until you have an entire puzzle to represent your progress.

How we built it

We utilized Together AI’s API to generate tasks for the user each day based on the goal they input. We also made it a bot for Discord, because it is already populated with a very similar user base, marking it easy for us to get users, and making it very convenient for them to use our bot.

Challenges we ran into

It was very hard for us to figure out what medium we wanted to present our program in. At first we considered a website or make it its own standalone chatbot, but we felt that those options did not encourage easy and convenient use, nor were they easy to develop.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We are really proud of the overall presentation! The bot is able to provide meaningful and beneficial tasks that align with the user's goals, and the UI is also very easy for users to get the hang of.

What we learned

We learned how to use Generative AI in our projects in order to implement functionality that would've been hard/impossible to implement otherwise. Together AI's API was extremely easy to use for this project, and we hope to utilize it more even after the hackathon.

What's next for LifePuzzle

We would love to work on it more to give it more features and possibly make it a Duolingo-like mobile app. We would also like to create a better reward system for it to give users even more incentives to complete their tasks.
