Build a modern mobile-first AI budgeting app. The dashboard should show income, spending, savings, and an interactive pie chart breaking spending into categories (groceries, housing, transport, entertainment, etc.). Include: 1. AI Financial Coach – analyzes transactions and gives personalized insights, identifies overspending, and suggests ways to save. 2. Budget Survey – asks about income, household size, expenses, goals, and lifestyle to calculate an ideal monthly budget, especially for groceries, then compares it with actual spending. 3. Receipt Scanner – users upload receipts; OCR/AI extracts store, date, items, quantities, prices, tax and total, then categorizes each item and stores the data. 4. Grocery Tracker – sorts purchased items by category, price, frequency, and store. 5. Price Comparison – compare products across Walmart, Safeway, Superstore, Costco, etc. Use mock data initially; never invent real prices. 6. Loan Calculator – calculate payments, total interest, and amortization. Use secure authentication, a proper database, responsive UI, clean architecture, and modular code. Build a functional MVP first, using mock data where APIs are unavailable.
