About the Project: SchedEz
Inspiration
The inspiration for SchedEz came from a problems faced by college students, people with meeting needs in general: unproductive meetings. During my time in college, I noticed that 90% of meetings often ended without concrete decisions, leading to endless rescheduling and inefficient time management. This inefficiency can be particularly frustrating when students already struggle with managing their academic, social, and personal commitments.
To solve this problem, I wanted to create an AI-powered assistant that could streamline the meeting process by real time updates of its documentation of the meeting for voice recognition, jot down key ideas during discussions, and automate scheduling, so professional groups can focus on productivity rather than administrative tasks.
What I Learned
This project was a valuable learning experience for me, especially in integrating different technologies. I worked solo so there was a lot of work load, but I am glad that at least I have a workable prototype:
- Using Git and Github for version control
- Using Flutter to build cross-platform mobile applications.
- User action flowchart
- Prioritizing work and prompting AI models for troubleshooting (ChatGPT, Devv_ai).
Additionally, I was able to learn a lot from referencing Mitesh Chodvadiya's Github thread for Best-Flutter-UI-Templates. It helped me develop a good intuition towards working on projects like this where I wanted specific designs and functions.
How I Built the Project
SchedEz was built using Flutter, which allowed me to create a cross-platform app that can run on both Android and iOS. I used a combination of:
- Dart for the app's logic.
- HTML, CSS, and JavaScript for structuring some initial components before transitioning into Flutter.
- The Google Calendar API to sync meetings and tasks directly with users’ calendars, providing a seamless experience.
Challenges I Faced

What’s Next?
I plan to continue developing SchedEz, incorporating more AI-driven features like automated task prioritization and expanding the app’s integration with other calendar systems, such as Apple Calendar and Outlook. I’d also love to gather user feedback to refine the UX and make SchedEz even more useful for busy students."
