Budgeting Web Application With AI

Overview

CodeBranch's dedicated development team worked on this project, which was a web-based application for designing home technology refurbishment projects. It was an AI-based system that suggested complementary products as the project was being designed, using each project's particularities. This was to ensure that the solution was complete and included all products needed to make the system work. Once the design was complete, the system allowed a budget simulation to be generated, including products and an estimate of installation and labor costs. Finally, the platform generated a formal budget in PDF format, which could be emailed or printed, containing the designs, the budget, and all technical specifications relating to the products.

  • Web Development
  • Custom Software Development
  • AI Development

Approach

The technology stack used was MongoDB, ExpressJS, ReactJS, and NodeJS (MERN stack). The AI recommendation engine was embedded into the design flow to surface complementary product suggestions in real time. The project was executed by two developers — one senior and one semi-senior — working to deliver both the intelligent design module and the budget/PDF generation features as an integrated platform.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the AI recommendation engine work in this budgeting application?
As the user designs their home technology project, the AI engine analyzes the components being selected and suggests complementary products based on the project's specific characteristics. This ensures no critical components are missed and that the proposed system will function as a complete, integrated solution.
What does the budget simulation include?
The budget simulation covers both product costs and estimated installation and labor costs for the project. This gives clients a realistic financial picture before committing to a full project proposal.
Can the platform generate client-ready proposals?
Yes. The platform generates a formal PDF document containing the full project design, the complete budget, and all technical specifications for the products involved. The PDF can be emailed directly to the client or printed for in-person meetings.
Why was the MERN stack chosen for this project?
MongoDB, ExpressJS, ReactJS, and NodeJS (MERN) were selected for their flexibility, JavaScript consistency across the full stack, and suitability for building dynamic, data-driven web applications with real-time interactions — ideal for a design tool with live AI recommendations.
Is this type of AI-assisted design tool applicable to other product categories?
Yes. The underlying architecture — form-driven design input, AI-powered complementary product recommendation, cost simulation, and PDF generation — can be adapted for any industry where complex product configurations need to be quoted and proposed to clients.
