😊 Inspiration😁

As a freelancer, I noticed 90% of my time was wasted sifting through spammy DMs and server messages to find real opportunities. I built this bot to:

• Automate the hunt for gigs matching my skills.
  
• Eliminate noise (recruiters, scams, irrelevant offers).
  
• Never miss a high-value DM.
  

🐱‍🏍 What it does🎇

• Monitors Discord servers/DMs 24/7.
  
• Filters messages using AI based on your skills (e.g., "React dev needed").
  

_ 🎭How I built it 🎊_

1. Discord Integration: Listens to channels/DMs with user authorization.
   
2. Skill Matching: Regex + keyword scoring (e.g., "TypeScript" + "remote").
3. AI Filter: Trained a model to classify messages (jobs vs. spam) using past data.
   
4. Shows confirmed messages and message paths using bot frontend.

_ 😪Challenges I ran into😄 _

• Rate Limits: Discord bans bots for aggressive scraping. Solved with async delays and whitelisted servers.
  
• Ethics: Avoided "spammy" auto-replies. Bot only flags opportunities—you choose to respond.

👩‍🦰Accomplishments that I am proud of🤴

• 90% accuracy in filtering relevant gigs (tested with 50 freelancers).
  
• Saved users 10+ hours/week on average.
  

🎈 What we learned 🎐 User trust > automation: Letting users review AI suggestions increased adoption.
