SpendWise

Inspiration

Most budget apps are too complicated. Spreadsheets are tedious. I wanted something where you just log your expense, and the AI tells you if you're doing okay — like a smart financial friend in your pocket.

What it does

SpendWise is an AI-powered personal budget tracker. It helps you:

• Track expenses by category (Food, Transport, Entertainment, Bills, Others)
• Set monthly budgets per category with visual progress bars
• View transaction history with search and filter
• Get AI-powered spending insights — personalized advice based on your actual spending patterns
• Export your monthly report as PDF
• See at a glance if you're on track or overspending

How I built it

Built entirely with MeDo; no manual coding required. I described the app in natural language, and MeDo generated the complete full-stack app, including a React frontend, Supabase database, and Gemini 2.5 Flash AI for personalized spending insights. Demo data was pre-loaded so the app is ready to use immediately.

Challenges I ran into

Designing the AI insights to feel genuinely useful, not just generic advice. The app needed to analyze real spending patterns and give specific, actionable recommendations per category.

What I learned

AI + personal finance is a killer combination. People don't need more data; they need smarter interpretation of their data. That's exactly what SpendWise delivers.
