Inspiration

Our inspiration for Servitium comes from a deep commitment to enhancing the lives of senior citizens by providing a centralized hub for essential services tailored to their unique needs.

What it does

Servitium serves as a comprehensive service hub specifically designed for senior citizens. It streamlines access to various services, making daily tasks and support more accessible and efficient.

Users are provided with a user-friendly interface for finding services that fit their needs. The application also supports use of natural language to find services (e.g. can enter "I would like to find an affordable plumber" in the home search bar).

Users can also leave reviews for service providers which makes it easier for other users to find the service providers that best suit their needs.

How we built it

Our platform integrates user-friendly interfaces and secure backend systems to ensure a seamless experience for both users and service providers.

Front-end: React
Back-end: Node.js, MongoDB
Authentication: Auth0
APIs used: OpenAI, Google Maps, Google Places, Nodemailer, Twilio

Challenges we ran into

Integrating OpenAI's API to client-side of the application
Integrating Nodemailer into the back-end of the application

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Integrating AI into our stack - users can use natural language to find services
Connecting back-end and front-end of our application
Making use of Auth0 to provide authentication
Introducing real-time texting and emailing notification feature

What we learned

Using third-party APIs
Full stack development (working on both the server and the client side)
How to setup and leverage MongoDB

What's next for Servitium

Setting up the service provider side of the application since the application currently only supports the client side
Retrieving more data on the service provider side (e.g. geolocation)
