Inspiration
Millions of shoppers search for products but always overspend. I wanted to build an AI that respects your budget.
What it does
PayPilot AI is a smart shopping assistant. You enter your budget (e.g. ₹25,000) and what you need (e.g. Laptop for college). The AI instantly finds the best matching products WITHIN your budget and shows them with a PayPal Checkout button for instant, secure payment. No more overspending!
How we built it
- Frontend: Streamlit (Python)
- AI Logic: Budget-aware product matching engine (simulates LLM product search)
- Payments: PayPal Checkout SDK in Sandbox mode (no real money)
- Hosting: Streamlit Cloud + GitHub
Challenges we ran into
Connecting PayPal Sandbox with Streamlit and making the AI strictly respect the budget filter.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
A fully working live demo: https://paypilot-ai.streamlit.app Public GitHub: https://github.com/niraj8423/paypilot-ai It demonstrates real Agentic Commerce - AI shops, PayPal pays.
What we learned
How to build Agentic Commerce experiences where AI + Payments work together.
What's next for PayPilot AI
Add real AI API (OpenAI/Gemini), real product API (Amazon), and PayPal vault for one-click repurchase.
