Inspiration
Modern professionals and students consume enormous amounts of information every day.
Meeting notes, PDFs, emails, research papers, project documents, and conversations are scattered across multiple platforms. Finding important information later becomes difficult and time-consuming.
We wanted to build a platform that doesn't just store information but understands it.
Using Google Gemini, we created Prism — a workspace that automatically organizes, connects, and explains knowledge.
What it does
Knowledge Hub
Upload documents, notes, presentations, and research.
AI Summaries
Generate concise summaries from large content.
Knowledge Graph
Visualize relationships between ideas, concepts, and projects.
Meeting Intelligence
Extract action items, decisions, and follow-ups.
Smart Search
Ask questions and receive answers from your entire knowledge base.
Insight Discovery
Identify trends, patterns, and hidden connections.
Project Memory
Maintain context across teams and projects.
How we built it
We built Prism as a knowledge intelligence platform designed to help users manage and understand information at scale.
The frontend was developed using React.js and Tailwind CSS, creating a beautiful workspace for browsing insights, searching knowledge, and exploring relationships between information.
The backend was built using Node.js and Express to process documents, manage knowledge indexing, and communicate with Google Gemini.
Google Gemini powers the intelligence layer by analyzing uploaded content, generating summaries, extracting entities, discovering relationships, and answering contextual questions.
Google Cloud services provide storage, authentication, indexing, and scalable deployment infrastructure.
Throughout development, we focused on helping users discover knowledge instead of simply storing information.
Challenges we ran into
Knowledge Linking
Identifying meaningful relationships across different documents.
Context Preservation
Maintaining understanding across large knowledge bases.
Search Relevance
Providing accurate answers from multiple information sources.
Scalability
Supporting growing collections of documents and insights.
