Natrec

Natrec is a web application that emulates AI tools including text generation, language translation, creative content writing, and accurate question answering. It is built using the Python Flask framework and provides a user-friendly interface for users to interact with.

Motivation

The motivation behind Natrec was to create a web application that makes people's lives easier with AI. The AI part of the application was not implemented but instead, Natrec focuses on providing a Minimal Viable Product(MVP) that offers the basic functionality of an AI-powered web application.

It was just an idea that I had when I was learning about General Artificial Intelligence(AI) and thought it would be fun to build a AI powered web application.

Features

Natrec offers several pages including the home page, about page, contact page, and blog page, as well as pages for getting started, tutorials, login, signup, logout, and users management. Some of the key features of Natrec include:

• Text generation: Natrec can generate text based on user input, making it useful for tasks such as summarizing long documents or generating content for social media.

• Language translation: Natrec can translate text between different languages, making it useful for communicating with people who speak different languages.

• Creative content writing: Natrec can generate creative content such as slogans or headlines, making it useful for marketing and advertising.

• Question answering: Natrec can answer questions based on user input, making it useful for tasks such as customer support or research.

Note: Realise that none of them were implemented yet.
