Inspiration

I wanted to help everybody with their finances. Money can feel overwhelming, and many people don’t know where to start. I wanted to build a tool that makes saving and budgeting approachable, fun, and motivating.

What it does

Piggy Pilot turns financial goals into easy-to-track challenges. Users can set savings targets, monitor progress visually, and stay motivated without the stress of spreadsheets.

How we built it

We built Piggy Pilot using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript for the frontend. The site is structured around interactive banners and a goal/challenge tracker that updates dynamically to give users an engaging experience.

Challenges we ran into

Designing a clean, user-friendly interface without overwhelming users

Making the challenge/goal tracker update smoothly and store progress

Deciding what features to prioritize within the hackathon timeframe

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Building a working prototype that is simple and intuitive

Creating a goal/challenge tracker that encourages financial responsibility

Delivering a polished project within the time limit

What we learned

How to turn abstract financial concepts into simple, interactive tools

The importance of good UI/UX in making personal finance feel approachable

How to scope features realistically for a hackathon project

What's next for Piggy Pilot

We want to expand Piggy Pilot by adding user authentication, persistent data storage, and AI-powered financial insights. Long term, the goal is to make Piggy Pilot a true financial co-pilot that helps anyone take control of their money.
