⚙️ GenEx — AI-Powered Requirement Extraction Tool

🚀 Built during the Barclays Hackathon – Hack-O-Hire

GenEx is a full-stack web application that automates the extraction and generation of software requirements from various document types such as PDF, DOCX, Excel, audio, and video files. It combines Natural Language Processing (NLP), Whisper (for transcription), and custom rule-based logic to first extract and categorize functional and non-functional requirements, and then assign MoSCoW priorities to them. Users can also export the extracted requirements as PDF, Excel, or JSON documents for further use.
