    paper AI Task Manager

    One of my recent projects is an AI-powered Task Manager that helps users plan, categorize, and prioritize their work intelligently. It uses natural language understanding to interpret how users describe tasks, then automatically assigns categories, detects intent, and suggests next actions or deadlines. The app also includes features like smart reminders, voice input, and contextual recommendations, built with FastAPI, React, and PostgreSQL.

    The goal was to create a productivity tool that feels intuitive — not just a to-do list, but a system that thinks alongside the user.
