Weekday

Hello, we are Team Manthers and the group behind the application Weekday. Our application tackles the problems of unstructured and overwhelming work notes.

Inspiration

As college students, we ourselves struggle to stay organized and productive throughout the day. So we decided that a productivity and planner app could help anyone struggling to stay focused and work efficiently throughout the day.

What it does

Our application Weekday aims to help all users, students, and business professionals manage and organize their work and mind amidst busy weekdays by turning chaotic notes into manageable descriptions and tasks planned for the next day. Our application saves hours of planning, reduces stress, and lets users lock in every weekday.

How we built it

Weekday was built using TkinterDnD2 for the user interface, PyPDF2 for extracting and interpreting the PDF, and OpenAI’s GPT 3.5 for personalized summarizing and scheduling from the specific PDF content. Using these, the user is able to input multiple PDFs and update the tasks and schedules, guaranteeing specific and up-to-date tasks.

Challenges we ran into

We initially faced problems connecting our main source file with our user interface code for our drag-and-drop function. However, our main challenge we faced was that the free OpenAI API key would not work with our application, and it prompted us to implement a different version of the API, which is beyond our resources. Our current video demo link includes this challenge, as our team does not have premium OpenAI to run this application.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We are proud to say we made a working interface and web app. As well as it was our first time working with OpenAI and integrating it into the User interface.

What we learned

We learned multiple ways to implement the AI's source code into the user interface. We also learned how to code using tkinter and Python interface after initially starting the project with HTML and CSS.

What's next for Weekday

Weekday continues to be updated to reach a greater audience and an updated OpenAI API key to help all students and business professionals save hours of planning, reduce stress, and lock in every weekday.
