Still processing this one honestly.
I built Vault in 8 days, a personal finance tracker with Frank, a blunt AI raccoon who reads your actual spending numbers and tells you exactly what's wrong with your financial decisions. No generic advice. No sugarcoating. Just your data and a raccoon with strong opinions.
What started as a blank Python file turned into a fully deployed app with real auth, a real database, real charts, and an AI persona that genuinely made people laugh during testing. That alone felt like a win before the results even came out.
Huge thank you to the Decoding Data Science team and the judges for putting this together. This kind of challenge teaches you more in 8 days than months of tutorials ever could, and I mean that genuinely, not just as something nice to say.
Congrats to everyone who built and submitted. The standard was high and it pushed me to do better. ๐
