Gemini Hackathon 2026

Project Proposal

An AI-powered investment dashboard that unifies diverse portfolio assets and delivers intelligent insights.

The Problem

Modern investors face a fragmented landscape. Their wealth is scattered across multiple platforms, asset classes, and accounts, making it nearly impossible to get a unified view of their financial health.

1

Fragmented Portfolio Tracking

Investors juggle multiple apps: Coinbase for crypto, Robinhood for stocks, bank apps for savings, and spreadsheets for everything else. There's no single source of truth.

2

Information Overload

Financial news, market data, and analysis are overwhelming. Investors struggle to extract actionable insights from the noise without spending hours researching.

3

Lack of Personalized Guidance

Generic financial advice doesn't account for individual portfolios, risk tolerance, or goals. Professional advisors are expensive and inaccessible to most retail investors.

4

Missed Opportunities

Without real-time monitoring and intelligent alerts, investors miss rebalancing opportunities, market trends, and potential risks until it's too late.

The Core Challenge

How do we empower everyday investors with the same portfolio intelligence tools that were once exclusive to wealth managers and institutional investors?

Our Solution

Briefcase is an AI-powered investment dashboard that consolidates all your assets in one place and delivers personalized, intelligent insights powered by Google Gemini.

Why This Model Works

The freemium model allows users to experience the core value of unified portfolio tracking without commitment. Once users see their complete financial picture, the AI-powered insights become a natural upsell that delivers clear value - personalized guidance that would cost hundreds of dollars from a human advisor.

Unit Economics

At $4.99/month per premium user, with minimal marginal costs (Gemini API is usage-based), Briefcase achieves strong contribution margins. The 3-day free trial reduces friction while ensuring only engaged users convert.
