Inspiration

Forums are powerful for community knowledge, but long threads often make it hard to find relevant information quickly. We wanted to make forums smarter and more accessible by using AI to generate instant insights and summaries.

What it does

ForuMind AI turns raw forum discussions into clear, actionable knowledge. Users can:

Get TL;DR summaries of long threads

Receive intelligent thread recommendations

(Future) See semantic search results and sentiment analysis All powered by AI and integrated seamlessly with the Foru.ms headless backend.

How we built it

Frontend: Next.js + v0 by Vercel

Backend: Foru.ms Headless API for forum data

AI Layer: OpenAI / LLMs for summarization

Modular folder structure (app/, lib/) for scalability

Real-time API routes for instant thread summaries

Challenges we ran into

Figuring out Next.js + TypeScript setup quickly

Integrating a dummy AI summarizer before using LLMs

Designing a hackathon-ready structure with limited time

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Full AI-ready project running locally

Clean and modular code structure

Added a professional project icon

Ready for hackathon submission and future extensions
