CIS400/401 Final Report: TrackIt A Cash Tracking and Budgeting Application

Personal financial management is a critical step to help alleviate poverty in developing countries. Unfortunately, there are few applications currently available that cater to this need in a specialized manner. TrackIt is a mobile application that integrates speech-to-text and natural language processing technologies to help users track cash transactions in an easy, fast, and unobtrusive manner by providing accurate offline speech to text and seamless functionality in offline environments. TrackIt is the first application that uses these technologies to solve this market need. Stringent evaluation criteria were used in the technological development of the system and to test market interest. In both areas, TrackIt exceeded expectations and has the potential to successfully integrate financial budgeting and literacy into the daily lives of our target population.
